I was thinking about installing it where the ashtray is by using the Roush Gauge kit. I can't find it (on the web) right now but I think it was like $200 and i forgot what size the openings for the gauges were.

Can you measure the gauges that came in the Rancho kit?

Looks great and very clean! I'm likley going wit Rancho as soon as i figure out if I can run the wheels I want. On the in cab adjuster, let me know what y'all come up with. I was wondering if one of the clusters that goes on the pillar wuld work.
