Inclinometer like in 4WOR

[8t7jimmy]

I am looking for more information on this inclinometer that was pictured in Peterson's 4 wheel and off road. Does anybody know anything about it? i have searched this site and the web with no luck. I have found other tilt meters, but nothing like this one.

Thanks

It might be a Toyota FJ only thing.

I liked it too, but never got into any real in depth searching...

I hope it isn't, because it is a sharp piece of equipment, and I would like to get one without paying the Toyota price tag.

It is an aftermarket add on. I have seen the pods like the gages are installed in for sale. I am looking for the inclinometer, and possibly the compass. Hopefully somebody has seen them somewhere.

Look's stock in an FJ to me. Alot of yota's have those.

Here is the caption from the picture in the magazine that makes my think that it is an add on, along with it not matching the dash.

"The cockpit of our life was getting pretty complicated with two cell phones, a satellite radio receiver, a CD player, a thermometer, an inclinometer, an odometer, and a compass all cluttering up our FJ Cruiser. Though we are way over-taxing our single power outlet, the Lowrance iWay 500C GPS has helped us find everything from local taco joints to distant trailheads. When used in our other trail rigs like the Army truck with oversized tires, it helps verify actual ground speed since the truck's speedometer is way off. "

I have seen inclinometer's in alot of old yota's and the fj cruiser is supposed to be hardcore so i think it might be stock but i am gonna look real fast.
