They look pretty awesome man! I'll pm you with a question so i don't overflow the thread with questions.

I think i'll get these off streetbeatcustoms website since their only 30 bucks if they come with the sensers. Have you guys had any experience with streetbikecustoms?

merc225hp: Yeah i know, that's why i got alittle money set out for her. But yeah, I'm going to wash, wax, and clean all the inside out of the ol Ram.

gdstock I am loving those gauges. I have been contemplating which ones to get for my truck, and I think you just made up my mind


I plan on the exact same setup, but with a tach instead of the tranny temp. Did you buy the package on the glowshift site? Just curious if the wiring kit is any good.

Wiring kit was excellent. Saved some time and effort. I got the tinted series.

I got the pod and one of the gauges from a member here as he decided not to install it, and painted to match (they come in black).

Sensors are included with gauge. Glow Shift customer service is great. They also have a e-bay store. Check their website and store for best pricing and sometimes free shipping.

I did the trans temp as I wanted to keep an eye on it after having rebuilt tranny.

ChillyPhil - never used streetbeatcustoms or streetbikecustoms. Don't know anything about them.

After other work is done and I decide to play more, I may install a wideband A/F.

Their on ebay for 140 shipped i think or you can probably get them off their website.



What 3 guages should i get for mine? I have a stock engine, but i don't want any guages that i already have on the stock dash. I'm pretty sure i want the vacuum and trans temp guages, but what other guage would be a good idea to get?

These aren't the cool glow type, but they are $10 less.

I know you said not the same as the dash but a mech oil psi gauge should be at the top of the list.

If I can figure out how to get the factory cluster with the tach to work with my truck, the third gauge in will be an oil pressure. Even if it doesn't go into the pod, the truck will get one, since that's one I don't want to be left to guess on...
