Those are some sweet gauges Russo. Try and post a pic after you get them installed, would ya? I've been thinking about pillar mounted gauges myself, so I can get some real info. Thanks, Peace, Dave. Lol, just went back to get the name of the gauges to price them, and saw where you said you would get pics up. Peace, Dave.

 

Yeah I will post more pics accordingly.
Still waiting on the pod.

 

Wow time flies, I can't believe it's been almost 3 months...
I got the oil sender put in today, I was wasiting until the oil needed changed.
Temp isn't done, need a radiator so I will wait until then for that sender.
Here's the oil sender


And the gauges



Nothing is finalized yet, I still plan to form the gauge pod into the stock pillar plastics, but it's not a high priority right meow.

 

Hey Russo. Looks good, man. It's funny, I was driving back from camping the other day, and some dude was coming towards me in a new F150, and I could see his pod cluster. Got me thinking about this again, I come on F150online and you had posted your pics. Pretty sweet. Peace, Dave.

 

The pods do look pretty cool from the front of the truck. Like so.

Now that these are about finished with my next mods start. Yesterday I installed new 6.5" boss audio 300 way 3 way door speakers and got a new billet grille put in today. Picking up 33" interco tires sometime within the next week and ordering up more lift parts as the money comes.

Speakers

Tires

Them gauges thingees haha

 

Hey russo. Lol on the front view. I'll be there soon. How bad do you need to form the pod to match the pillar? I've got a 90, and so far the only clusters I've seen for it are 2 gauges. I could get a double and a single, but I've also seen somewhere somebody said with three up the top gauge is hard to read. Any visibility problems with yours? Everything else is looking good as well, although I've never been a fan of billet grills. Thanks for the reply, Peace, Dave.

 

I just cut the bottom of it off where the 92-97 trucks would form onto the dash and made my own holes to pull the pod up tight onto the stock pillar.
Like so..

I didn't use the very bottom hole it shows. I notched that out so the wires had a spot to run and were down out of site, I will get a picture of that tomorrow.
In stead I put two screws in between the gauges.

Here's the grille, I'm undecided on it.

 

Cool, thanks on the pod info. The billet grill,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I just don't know, man. Maybe if the bars were thicker, there's just something there that doesn't catch my eye. But that's just me. I see a ton of them out there, though. Keep up with the updates. Thanks, Peace, Dave.

 

Ditch that grill, only thing that can make the ugliest ford body style uglier. Only thing I thought helps my '88 is the plastic flat black XL/Custom style.

See I hated the black grille on my truck. Very bland.
I want to get my hands on an all chrome one, not chrome and black. I don't wanna pay lmc for one though

It's needs a bath something fierce in that picture, but it was winter.

 

Looks great to me. I'll look though my hoard of grills to see if I have a nice all chrome one.

I know I have two good rust free under grill/lights metal pieces if'n ya need one.

Unless the back side is rusted on mine I should be good. It is one of the few panels that won't be getting replaced, has surface rust, but it's whatever at this point
