Well I started to make a single gauge pod for my truck so I can keep the handle. I have a friend that is pretty good with fiberglass I am going to have him look at the stock pillar and see if he can fit two gauges in there if so then you can send them to me and he can make em for you guys

Not that bad to do gauges of any sort. Personally I want an actual oil pressure gauge, not just a dummy light.

Then a AFR gauge

And if we get one that fits three, I am using the last one as a section to put a couple switches for my air compressor in.

I would the an AFR gauge, but they need a wideband to actually help you understand your fuel mixure .... and thats to pricey for my tastes.

I ended up with Autometer. cant go wrong there.

yup, i will never have anything other than autometer, bout as good as it gets, i have 18 of them between my 3 trucks, but soon to be 21

its some what easy, i T-ed mine in the hot side cooler line just before the radiator, its a lot hotter than the pan will ever be, but if you go by it, you will never scoarch the fluid,




also, remember guy's... the 3rd gen ram coluom pods are a direct fit for the dak's
