Talking Another score!!!!

Another nice score for the Ramp Rat! I have been waiting on a deal like this for a long time. I had been thinking of putting digital dash in it but not now.
I got the dash for $125.00 shipped. This thing looks brand new almost.

I will have to redo the wiring for the wipers to move the switch over to the other side of the dash which shouldn't be to hard.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Those are the ones I was looking at but not anymore man! Factory dash tach are most of the time $250.00 -$300 are more. That's the only reason I was looking at the digital's unless I went LS but this will be period correct.

The needles are a little faded but I can fix them easy enough with some testers paint. Now if I could just find a old speed warning speedo for it!

Re: Another score!!!!

The Auto Fair is in Charlotte in two more months. I'm sure you can find a Speed warning Speedo there. That would be perfect for the Ramp Rat.
Speak of the Speed warning speedo.
What did they normally come in?
I would think the C-30, 50, 60 and 70 series.
Would I be correct in that assumption?

Just about any C10 could have them. I found the last one in a dump truck.
Yep I'll plan to be at the Charlotte feast for sure.

New tach cluster is in and new dash pad installed. Now to find the speed warning head for it.
Moved the wipers over to the right side of the dash also.
