I don't know if im posting in the right spot, I just joined, but I got an 04 ram 2500 5.7 hemi that I plow with. I bought extra temperature gauges (oil, tranny, and water). the tranny one I believe I can add a tee to the tranny line or is there a spot on the transmission itself for the sending unit? I have no idea where to put the oil sending unit? and the water gauge can I just tap into the stock gauge without adding another sending unit? thanks for any info

Did your gauges come with temp sensors. I used a fitting from summit that goes in the upper radiator hose and as a 1/4" npt female to put the sensor in. I know the aftermarket tranny pans come with a place to add temp sensors. Other than that not sure where you would put the other 2.

For my oil temp gauge a unscrewed the stock oil pressure sending unit (it's right above the filter) and installed a three way splitter. Then I was able to reinstall the stock sending unit as well as add aftermarket oil pressure and temp sending units.

For the other two gauges you mentioned I just use my aeroforce to read those parameters while driving.

yes they did come with sensors and I was thinking of doing it that way but if the thermostat is closed and no fluid is going threw the hose wouldn't it read alil cooler then the stock gauge?
