Info on my tach dash

I got this Tach Dash a few weeks ago from an old grain truck with a big block in it. It has the air pressure guage. I was wondering if it's more valuable or if anyone would ever want an air pressure guage? If not I'm just going to get a new printed circut and dash bezel and just run it in my pickup with out that guage hooked up. If anyone knows anything about that guage, I would appreciate it.

Would be cool if you had air bags on your ride....

The air gauge is normal on the bigger trucks with air brakes. As already pointed out, you could hook it up if you had bags.

Can't tell from the picture, but if it's a factory gauge it's probably for a larger truck that had air brakes.

Re: Info on my tach dash

I am interested in the air pressure gauge cluster. I am going to run air bags only in the rear and it would be a cool option. PM sent.
Thanks,
John

I'll keep you in mind John, It's at my parents place. When I go home this weekend take a few more pics. Would definitely be cool if I ran air bags but I just want a tach dash.

Why a new printed circuit. Is the one with the dash bad? You can hook everything up if you have gauges now. Just swap out the back side with the one you have and swap lens out.

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.

Re: Info on my tach dash

the printed circuit had bad spots everywhere. I'm in college now and $$ is a little harder to come by right now. My dash bezel is painted to match my interior so I'll reuse the bezel.
