A differential temp gauge is not really needed. Unless you do alot of long hard acceleration and deceleration, then the rearend temp will not fluctuate too much. This is why they don't require a cooler except in extreme cases such as NASCAR.
With the poor track record that Dodge has had with their transmissions, I voted for the trans temp gauge.

OK, you convinced me, I'll spring for the gauge if you send me the SC...
Was outside pressure washing the concrete slab in the patio & out around the pool to get it ready to paint it tomorrow, UPS drove by, but they didn't stop with my SC yet...

Your gravestone will read "I haven't gotten my SC yet!"

Show where my tastes are, the voting right now is 10 for tranny, 10 for A/F and only 1 for the rear diff. I was actually leaning toward one of the oversized rear diff covers in either polished aluminum or chrome with the drain & fill holes, tapped for the temp gauge, so now, obviously, I'm re-thinking this...
