5.9 CUMMINS GAUGE AND POD SET
This Gauge Package features a Diesel Boost Gauge, EGT Pyrometer Gauge, and Trans Temp Gauge, with the option of installing a Fuel Pressure Gauge instead of the Transmission Temperature Gauge. Each 2nd Gen Cummins Gauge Package also comes with a Ram Pillar Gauge Pod created specifically for the factory A-pillar of virtually any 1998-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 & 3500. We selected this combo set based on feedback from our Tech Team, who recommended this gauge and pod package as being optimal for the 24 Valve 5.9L Cummins.
7 COLOR GAUGE SERIES

Depending on which version you select, you’ll have the choice of a black or white gauge dial with a magnified clear or tinted lens and illuminated red needle. Easily cycle through the 7 Solid Color Modes and 2 Color Cycles available for the analog LED display. Solid Colors include Blue, Green, Red, Teal, Yellow, Purple, and White.

you should put grease on the thread tap so metal doesnt fall into the manifold and go through your engine and turbo

I mean something... Geez I was cringing when he just kept drilling and up-sizing and drilling and up-sizing, I mean he had a vacuum right there anyways he could have at least tried to get the external shaving to minimize the internal ones lol. I would have pulled the turbo but that's just me. I also would try to get more of a central location to probe unless they are mainly focusing on #6 egt since apparently they are known for #6 getting hot

@derekis1joedirt Жыл бұрын

Also WTH is with the ground location, they removed the paint of a 4inch area. You could have ran straight to the battery before you messed up paint especially paint on a firewall, you know a core structural part that isn't removable so if it does rust it's patchwork to repair or a cab swap😂 I'm sure it would get spot painted but why would you want to even go that route. Just mho

I got 3 question. When you get the gauges does it come with the sensor? Does the fuel one come with the 90 degree fitting? Do you need the transmission adaptor for the 5 speed Manuel?

@GlowShift 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, it does come with the sensor. No it does not come with a 90 degree adapter but you can purchase it thru our website. We do not recommend installing a transmission temp gauge on a manual transmission vehicle.

Instead of putting the snubber/sensor banjo bolt on the bottom of the fuel filter housing, can you put it in the inlet of the vp44?

@GlowShift Жыл бұрын

If the threads of that port match the threads of the adapter, you can put it there. However, please be aware that we have not tested that location for accuracy so we cannot confirm.

How often will you be towing something? If not very often, then we would suggest fuel pressure.

@localdu 5 жыл бұрын

@@GlowShift Thanks for the quick reply! I tow occasionally, but my truck is a daily driver as well. Seeing as the OEM lift pumps are problematic the fuel pressure gauge would be a better route, as my water temp would rise if my transmission was getting hot, yes?

@GlowShift 5 жыл бұрын

Not necessarily. If the transmission cooler is built into the vehicle's radiator, it will have no effect in the water temperature of the vehicle. The reason for this is, the cooler for the transmission is separate from the coolant housing of the radiator.

Double check your power connections as well as your ground connection. If the gauge is not turning on at all, that means the gauge is not receiving power.

I don’t think anyone makes them but what u can do is buy a 3 gauge one and either buy a single pod and add it to the pillar or get one the goes on your steering column infront of your cluster that’s about the only options probably but maybe their is someone that makes a 4 gauge pillar pod but hope that helps

Our 3 gauge kits are available with either a transmission temperature gauge or a fuel pressure gauge as the 3rd gauge in the kit. So, we show how to install both sensors for customers that purchased one verse the other. Wiring is the same for both gauges, which is why we dont show it for both.
