Brake control mounting location on a 2001.5?

[Tiger Rag]

Hey everyone, good evening. I was just wiring my brake control in my 01. 5 ram and was examining good mounting locations. I'd like to avoid any obvious drilling locations (holes in the knee panel) if possible and want it to keep clear of foot pedals. The controller is a Teshonka Voyager and the truck is a 6 speed (3 pedals below). I was going to go under the faux ash tray storage door, but it looks like I'll block the diagnostic port. Any suggestions or pictures anyone can share would be greatly appreciated.



Thanks for the help, Matt

I mounted my Jordan in place of the ashtray. I just pulled out the ashtray and it fit great. I did have to drill a hole for the mount but it cannot be seen and if I take it out I can just put the ashtray right back in and no one will ever know there was one there.

In my '01, I mounted the Voyager in place of the ash tray.

Thanks guys. I'll check out using the ash tray and see how it would look. Someone else suggested just using the stock screw location in the kick/knee panel to mount it. I'll take a look at that too. Anyone else that has suggestions are welcomed.



Thanks, Matt

I put my Jordan farther down under the ashtray. I have the comp mounted inside the ashtray out of site.

Ok, here was my solution. I used the far right stock screw in the knee panel and then drilled the metal framing in between the knee panel and the next panel to the right and through bolted the other right side fastener location. It still leaves the diagnostic port accessible and my size 11. 5's don't interfere with it either. Also, there are no visible holes drilled into the panels. Here is a picture (if it will link):



Thanks everyone for the suggestions, Matt
