    I'm trying to get all my ducks in a row in preparation of mounting an Ultragauge in our 12' TRDOR. I'll be using a Tech Deck with RAM mounts. If anyone has gone this route, how did they mount the Ultragauge mounting bracket to RAM ball mount?.....I have a couple of ideas, but I don't know what direction to go in.....

    Perfect! Thanks! Does the 2 x 1.7 base allow for access to the Ultragauge buttons?.....

    To be honest, it’s right up against the buttons as-is. I ended up using a bench grinder to make the base plate smaller by 1/4” on either vertical side. Works great now.

    I couldn’t find any other base options so I made it work!
