autometer gauges in factory dash?

Do they make a complete set of Autometer gauges that fit directly into the stock dash locations for a 81-87 truck? If not, does anybody have part numbers for gauges that fit perfectly without doing much or any mods to the dash?

I think you can use 2 1/16th gauges for the oil pressure, volts, temp, fuel, or whatever. and a 5" for the speedo and tach. Dennis has a thread on here that kind of explains it pretty decent.

I installed these it was on the simple side to get them in but when when there flush against the bezel its hard to read the top of the gauges when your driving so I angled them up it was not that hard to do either

If you are looking for stock, look at LMC Truck, they have a complete set in their online catalog. Look exactly like stock and year specific.
