Lmm aftermarket guages...

[ZeroGravity58]

I have a 3 pillar pod with my boost, pyro, dsp5 switch in it. I want to add a fuel pressure guage for the lift pump and a oil temp guage. How would you mount them? My old truck I threw them in the overhead bin but don't have that option anymore..does someone make anything or anyone have any ideas?

Just do a cts2 and be done. Rail pressure does not mean much if you don't see what desired is.

My CTS2 can't monitor lift pump pressure and engine oil temperature via the OBD2... If it can I haven't found it. Maybe LMM's are different.

Zerogravity, did you check for any steering column gauge mounts? That, or a dash pod would be my only ideas. Unless you mount the gauges down by the e-brake release on the lower side of the dash with each in a single gauge mount.

Too bad there's not a type of "Trippin' mount" for the center console on the '07.5-'14's.

They only make a single for the steering wheel. I'm kinda debating on fabbing something up to put them in the center console. I'm unsure yet, I've been looking around the inside of the truck debating on what to do. I want a factory looking install. I wish the newer trucks had the overhead bin like the older body style...I figured someone in here had to make something up to mount guages in besides a pillar pod...

Keep lift pump pressure and oil them in the top 2 spots and put a cts2 in the bottom hole. Best bet there without clutter

About to order new gauges since my pyro took a dump, anyone use the single gauge pod on the steering wheel? I will move my dps5 and put my pyro, boost, fuel in the pillar and my oil temp on the steering column

I have the autometer steering column pod. Actually fit well and looks nice. I have two other gauges that I mounted in my center console that turned out nice.

Any pics by chance?

Kennedy diesel has a digital gauge that works a dual pressure gauge you could wire it up to read the two pressures your wanting I think is made by spa it's on kennedys website you could add it in the a pillar pod or steering column pod just a thought

I don't use the app and photobucket would t let me post picks anymore. PM a number and I can send some to you.

 

[ZeroGravity58]

I will pm you my number, I looked into the gauge at Kennedy diesel but it was very pricey, I could almost replace all my gauges for the price if that one..

 

[ZeroGravity58]

I finally replaced all my guages. I did not.like the steering wheel mount so I got alittle creative with my guage mounting for my oil temp guage I just can't figure out how to post it...

 

[ZeroGravity58]

Let me know what you think, maybe give someone else an idea. I out my dsp5 on the other side of my steering wheel

 

[cdbright]

are you going to try to read rail pressure? I tried with my LMM and couldnt get it to do it with an aftermarket gauge. For some reason the truck saw the ohms from the gauge (i think) and would freak out and start to knock. I tried to wire it both ways, old and new style and autometer gave me a new gauge to try as well. Anyway you are prob just readying your new lift pressure so this story wont matter.

just rambling :hug::hug::hug:

Yes, in the pod is my pyro, boost, lift pump. In the dash is my oil temp.
