I havent been able to find a AUX pillar gauge set up anywhere for sale? Do they even make them for 2006 dakotas? I would prefer the pillar gauge set up (like of the full size rams) mount over the, dash and underdash pods. I wanted to install a tranny temp gauge, oil pressure, and maybe a battery gauge.

 

You know you just might be right, I checked where I got mine for my Ram and they only had them for '97-'04 Daks, so I did a quick search at the three truck accessory shops I normally go to for stuff and all three had them - but just for '97-'04 Daks also...

 

There are none for our trucks. Some of the members have fabbed up a couple with some fiber glass on the existing pillar... you are out of luck. They do however have some for the steering wheel column like you said you didnt want though...

what is the part number on the guage pod? i cant find it anywhere, i want to put my air spring pressure guage in it

 

I believe some people have modified pillar pods intended for the 3g Rams but there is none that I know of specifically for our trucks.

I got off of summit racing.

Its described as fitting only the 03-08 rams but it will work in your truck with no modifications.

 

yup thats what i run too, i also modded one from a 98-02 ram that fits awsome for the a-pillar

What did you have to do to make it fit the pillar?

 

just trim the ends and drill a hole and install a longer bolt into the original pillar bolt hole

here r the trim pics, top is what i started with, the bottom 2 is what installed
