F-650 Dash Done!
Hey guys I just finished my 650 dash…finally! With help from these threads:
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/9...-dash-for.html https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...questions.html https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/6...ge-wiring.html https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...ge-wiring.html Riffraff Diesel: RDP AIH Tapped Fitting I was able to follow along and “git ‘er done” over the course of a couple of weekends. I got the AIH delete plug from Clay at RiffRaff to make the boost hook up easy. I got the Auto Meter Phantom Gauges (boost/tranny/pyro) from JEGS. Overall it took way longer to do than I thought, but I am happy with the outcome. I used a 12x12 piece of Lexan cut to size from Home Depot for the panel for the gauges on the right. Once cut down to size and painted, I then used some nut plates (behind the dash) and fasteners from Ace Hardware to secure it to the dash. I already had an Air Bag gauge with in cab controls, so I just added it to the set up. I mounted the Air Bag switches under the dash to the right of the brake controller sine they were really large and deep. I tried to leave enough room under the gauges on the left to add a toggle later once I get some fog lamps.

You guys rawk! :-jammin http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o...ut345/dash.jpg |
