Gauges the same?

I have a pillar pod with the 3 gauges. I bought it for a 2000 Dodge Cummins but never installed it. My question are the gauges generic. I mean can I put them on my Ford if I get a new pillar pod. I have Auto meter gauges. Trans 100-250, Pyro 0-16, and boost 0-35. They are about 1 7/8 in diameter across the back.
I had a Gear Vendor put on this week. It is awesome. I can feel the shift sometimes but I think I have to get used to it. I had a 410 system and 65 was about 22 RPM now 75MPH is about 1800 with both overdrives on. Sure would recommend it to anyone with the low gears. This way I still have my OEM gears if I need it. He told me that the Gear Vendor overdrive was stronger than Ford overdrive so if I want to haul in overdrive use just the Gear Vendor.
After the gauges and intake and exhaust I will put a DP tuner the I hope done for awhile

Thanks for all the great advice
Pam

Yes the gauges will work on any vehicle. Buy a new pillar pod and you're good to go.

A gauge is a gauge is a gauge. The only thing that will differ will be where you get your readings from.
