I added a 4th gauge to my ashtray as I do not smoke and never use it for anything. I fabbed a small braket out of light gauge metal so that it would slide just inside the ashtray, then carefully drilled and bolted the bracket to the ashtray and fastened the gauge to the braket. I drilled a large enough hole through the back to run my fuel pressure line to connect to the gauge. The gauge I used was a cheap one and it didnt even have a light so I was able to take advantage of the light in the ashtray it lights the gauge up quite well at night. I can take some pictures of it if itss something you would be interested in.

Search for my old post where Jlandry explained that you have to get a certain part number from Cummins if you replace the oil psi sender. Dodge will sell you the updated part which is a pressure switch instead of a sender and requires a PCM flash to operate "correctly". I'm not sure about parts store senders.



*edit* I found my old threads. See if either of these helps you.

I hung a gauge pod off the side of the A-pillar three gauge pod. Snoking

Thanks everybody..... I replaced the sending unit, Cummins part, and works OK. I will keep the data for reference. I am very interested in SNORKINGs 4th pillar gauge... ... .
