Boring standalone round gauges for oil pressure, trans temp, water temp. Nothing else needed IMO. Voltage is visible via a USB plug/monitor.

Yes, the 3899 is a direct replacement. I have 6 on hand right now, but no guarantees for how much longer. AND no guarantee that RCV will have them stocked....usually they only have inventory when another larger order comes in (ie: me... lol) I don't have any restock plans, yet.
AND, be aware...
My lowers and the chassis-side uppers just use weld in spacers for the 3/4 bolts. I haven't noted any binding with 16" air shocks, and I know Jesse builds some JHF Trails with 18" rear. Axle side uppers are a misalignment with a 5/8 bolt.
7/8 shank, 3/4 bolt. Uppers and lowers are the same. Lowers are ALL RH thread, uppers are LH/RH mixed for adjustability.
Lowers should be all RH, otherwise you'll spend every trip tightening jam nuts.
7/8-3/4 for my heims. (I think...) heimjoints.net is local, so I shop there :)
3/4-5/8 for the steering heims (I think...)
Thus far, I've had one bend. They ARE due for replacement after 2-1/2 years, links and steering.
I ended up doing the live coverage, which was tons of fun, but eliminated any chance of pics. Had a good turnout, tho I know a few competitors wanted to attend that ended up with last minute issues due to travel or build progress.

The...
42/20s is 275# of water at top of wheel, plus the 150# tire/wheel combo (estimate)
My portal rig is around 3800#, with a 58/42 bias running front water just under half way. My front tire/wheel/water combo weighs 350# (scaled for accuracy)
Interesting fun fact:
The detents in a factory D300 are not equally spaced.
The detents in the MM300 ARE equally spaced.
A design flaw I pointed out early in their development that was never addressed.

I have 42's, 40's, 38's and 37's all in stock in Toquerville.
Currently, 4ea of the 42's aren't spoken for (I have 16 on hand). There are 33 remaining in the warehouse. And per a text from the EVP tonight, the next production run of 378 42" black labels is due June...

My front and rear upper link mounts are outside the chassis rails.
ORI's are unfortunately happiest with more bump than an air shock...I run 3" of bump with 16" airs, what bump are you planning with the ORI's ?
Looking forward to plan B 🙂
There are a couple nice front engine small chassis out there now...Iron Man has one, and Hulse is working on one too.
4 steps forward, one back 😉
