    so in the last thread I asked how make the needles moving right, that worked all good so far, but on this vehicle the gauges are a little bit bent, so I think I need to move them like a little bit on the y axes, but what should i take as a reference number . That it is streight I used for "base rotation" this:

    Code:
    {"x":24, "y":0, "z":0},
    so what do I have to set for y and z that it fits on the bent gauges ?

    here is the whole line for the needle if you need

    Code:
    ["rpm",         "sbr_needle_tacho", "f7r","f7l","f8r", {"x":24, "y":0, "z":0}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":-0.03}     , {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 0, 8250, -5000, 1],

    Hey,

    after having a look at your files, it seems that your mesh is all right!

    But you need to simply adjust you jbeam a bit. Just reset the baseRotation to (0,0,0). Should work properly afterwards.

    Code:
            ["wheelspeed", "sbr_needle_tachoO", "f8l","f7l","f8r", {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":-1},  {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 0, 270, 90, 4],
            ["rpm",         "sbr_needle_tacho", "f7r","f7l","f8r", {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":-0.03}     , {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 0, 8250, -5000, 1],
            ["fuel",         "sbr_needle_fuel", "f7r","f7l","f8r", {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":69}     , {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 0, 1, -1.8, 1],
            ["watertemp",       "sbr_needle_temp", "f7r","f7l","f8r", {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, {"x":0, "y":0, "z":-0.8}     , {"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, 60, 120, -85, 1],
    
    Let me know if you face any further problems!
