Need pics thoughts on tube dash built into cage

No heater of anything, but this is what I did.

From left to right:Stock light switch, Oil Pressure, Temp. with turn and bright indicater over them, 12 switchs for lights and stuff(not all of them are being used), Tach, Volt Meter, Vacume(soon to be replaced with trans temp), and Fuel Level.

got any pics of the rest of the cage and truck.I like what you did with the dash.Seems like a simple no frills way to do it. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
does it tie into the front at all or just an interior cage?

It doesn't tie into the front yet. After I roll it and break the windshield, I am cutting the top off and will use plexy glass bolted to the cage for the windshield. At the same time I will run tubes from the cab cage to the engine cage.

All of it. I cut out very little.
 
i like what u did blazen, very clean. Only thing I wonder about is a) arent a couple of those guages pretty far to the right? can the driver view them from the angle they are at? and b) can those dash-mounted switches be reached when strapped in? i guess with stock seatbelts it wouldnt be so much of a problem, but for those of us with harnesses its a pain to take it on/off just to flip a switch.

that said I do really like it! /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

The gauges on the right are the ones you don't look at all the time, i.e., volts, fuel level, trans temp. They are guages you want and use, but don't need to keep a stedy eye on like oil pressure and engine temp. I don't have my harnesses yet, but with as close as the seat is, yes I can reach them. I have the removable steering wheel because I am close to it and getting in and out with the wheel there is possable, but tight.
