Replacement gauges

1 Attachment(s)

Hi all, im a newbie so please be patient :uhmk:

I am going to buy a 1986 GMC K3500 Dually 4x4 Chassis-Cab soon. It has sat outside in the elements for 9 years without a drivers side window. I will try to post a picture of the gauge cluster. Where can i buy replacement gauges? It look like i will need oil pressure, water temp, fuel level and possible all of them.

Re: Replacement gauges

Replacement gauges are all over, like LMC and Classic parts, or do a google search, or Amazon. However, buying individual gauges can get costly. I would get a whole instrument cluster from a pick and pull type junkyard. If you get some dead gauges you can take them back for credit - which you will use on other stuff because you have an old truck that always needs something. If you have extra working gauges when you are done you can sell them on Ebay or here if you are a premium member.
