My latest project was installing these gauges in my 955. They are Faria Marine gauges.
I am very happy how they turned out.

Cool
How do you like your 955?
Do you have a belly mower for it?

How did you conect the gauges? Did you use new sending units in place of the old one or could the old ones work with gauges? I haven't looked at my 855 to see how much work it would be but I think this is a great idea. I don't like the idea of using a light that could be out to tell me something is wrong.

I love this tractor. I used to have a belly mower, but never used it and sold it.
There are a couple of things that the new tractors have that I wish mine did:
1- Nice suspension seat.
2- Heat from the engine blows right towards you, and when I am bush hogging, it gets kinda hot.
3- its a bit on the loud side.
4- The joystick control comes out from under the seat, if you are a chunk like me, that interferes with the movement cause it hits the seat.
Other than that, I LOVE THIS TRACTOR.

I used new sending units. the oil sending unit was quite big, so I used the oil port towards the front of the motor. The water temp sender went in to the right of the original one. I will post pics today to show you where.
So, my idiot lights are still connected.

I want to do a similar gauge install on my 955. Is there plenty of space to install the 2" gauges or did you have to displace things behind the dash? where exactly did you mount your sending units? Thanks
