misc ???'s....

Just a couple of quick questions that I need some help on...

1. Anyone out there using or used in the past any of the tool boxes that fit over the fender well? I haul an ATV in my SD, and I need storage that doesn't eat up my bed space. I found one called the SaddlePack II Storage System from Steel Horse, but it appears that Steel Horse is having financial difficulties right now, and are not shipping anything to their distributors.

2. I've purchased a dual gauge pod for my SD, and want to install a tranny temp gauge, but I'm not sure what over gauge I should get. I pull a 29 ft travel trailer occasionally for camping, so I thought maybe a water temp gauge, since I heard the existing gauge is really a dummy. Any ideas?

Thanks again!!!! You guys are great..

By the way, just an FYI... If anyone is looking at installing a Rancho steering stabilizer on their '99-up SD, and using the Rancho recommended RS5406, then you will definitely need the bracket kit from Rancho also. Summit Racing was not aware of this, and sold me only the stabilizer.

Steel Horse sucks. Be glad you didn't buy from them. They have the worst service of anyone I've dealt with.

Go with the water temp. Ours IS a dummy guage. Sounds like you've got it covered.
