With some slight mods the 2nd gen Ram triple pod will fit - here's mine:

Autometer #15002, $50 from Summit Racing. Trim the lower edge, epoxy a couple 1/4" bolts to the bottom, drill a couple holes in the top of the dash, good to go.

did you make the gauges point to the left or do they come that way???? I wanted to to mount mine in the left of the dash to cover up some other holes

naww, it only points to the left. Come to think of it I'm not sure if there is a pod that aims right. I think there are a couple that are straight out - I think the 3rd gen pod is like that. Geno's garage probably has good photos of 2nd and 3rd gen pods, and I'm sure sells them too.

U. S. Gear Corporation Home Page. Go to their site, get the phone number, call em. Tell them what you want. They carry/sell 2,3,4,5 gauge dash pods for our old trucks. I have one of their 3 gauge dash pods. Pics might be in my gallery.

I called don @ usgear yesterday and he told me they didn't have dash pods for 1st gens anymore. Shadrach

Damn I thought you guys found some for the 1st gens . I will call geno's and see what see sells that I can make work. How does the 2nd gens mount

Piers Diesel has a 3 and 4 gauge pod that is dash mounted for 89-93. Check their web site.

Has anyone got a picture of what the PDR pods look like? They can't provide me with one Shadrach

I don't have a pic, but I have seen them. There is a hump for each gauge and a tab that kinda hangs over the edge between the ac controlls and the glove box part of the dash. I saw one on a truck that was for sale on ebay a week or so ago. I ordered one from pdr and should have it in a couple of weeks. I hated to spend the hundred bucks for it, so if I get the second gen one modified before the 1st gen one gets here, I will have no use for it.

I just seen that www.scheiddiesel.com sells 3,4 gauge dash pods by Banks.

I didn't see a picture on their site and they come with gauges. PDR was kind enough to send me a photo that they had taken but I can't seem to get it attached. i looks like the one Leper described above. Shadrach
