Gauge Mount ?'s
 
I am in need of getting and mounting a Boost and Pyrometer for my 93 w250, what is the cleanest way to intall the pods without those crappy universal pillar mounts? and who has the best deals on gauges? Thanks :argh:

summit has ones specifically for the older dodges; two pod (perfect for your application) they go over your existing pillar so you'll have a step up, but if your handy with body filler it wouldnt be anything to blend it all in to look one piece. i bought my truck from my aunt; idk where my aunt got her pod, but there's a 3 pod dash mount. might not be made for a dodge, but it fits decently... idk if they still make them or not. as for the gauges; from what i've seen they all run about the same in price. i'm sure someone else would be able to give you some more information on better prices

go with an auto-meter little pricey but worth it STAY AWAY FROM GLOSHIFT the $23.67 shipped aint worth having your gauges point at the roof instead of your face!

glowshift gauges are good, its the ProPods pods they sell that are junk, they glare light into your eyes bad......


if your truck had the square plastic steering column you can use a steering column pod from a 94-02 truck, I have one and i also have the double and single autometer pillar pods as well, i have the Glowshift Digital gauges also......there is a thread around here about them......

Those dash mounts are impossible to find now. A good buddy of mine named RSWORDS ran across one not to long ago and he wont come off it. They are nice, just impossible to find.

well in that case i plan on hanging onto it myself... when ever i redo the truck from the ground up in.... about 4 years... i'll actually fibeglass it into the dash so it doesnt stick out like a sore thumb... when my current refreshing is done i'll get some pics up... i'm doing enough to keep the old girl alive and inspected for 4 years til i do all but crack the frame in half.

He doesn't make the 5 gauge pod anymore, but if you have any questions for him, or want a couple more pictures, you can check out this thread. 1stGen.org :: View topic - Custom gauge holder

By the way, he is a great guy to deal with, and kept me updated with pictures while he was in the process of making my pod. They are a little expensive, but 100% worth it to me.

I tried to find the guy that you recommended for the custom made pods but I can't find him. Can you email me with his information please? ndukes@live.com

Unfortunately he is no longer making these gauge pods. He told me when or if he ever makes them again he'll be sure to let all the diesel forums know.
