Does this gauge fit out trucks? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought it because it was listed in multiple places as 71-up, but it looks more like it might be a 73-up. Either way, it's only for the big C60 or C70 trucks is what I mean, I know it didn't come on the halfs and 3/4s.

But does it fit out dash, or where would it mount?

Definitely doesn't look like our vintage, but I don't know much about the big boys. What are the dimensions? Have you found pics of it installed anywhere? I'm assuming you don't have it yet

I have it in hand now, will measure...

C40/C50/C60 trucks of our vintage with air brakes did come with a vacuum gauge, but it was in the carrier with printed lens just like a standard 67-72 with gauges.

Looks like it goes in a 70s conventional tractor 9500 or Astro/Titan

My thought is a 90 series titan.

I was looking for a photo. I rode with my dad, bobtail from Michigan to Rochester New York and back, setting on a tool box and a suit case in a 1977 Titan. I was 12 years old and remember how bumpy that ride was.

Needless to say, I am a huge Smokey and the Bandit fan.

Brought back cool memories of that time in my life.

I think TBONE is likely correct...

I had also ordered this one, which I believe is a little more likely to fit :-P

Looks like a 0-150 psi air gauge and a 60psi oil

I don't support there's a LENS that says AIR PRESSURE is there? Or just AIR?

All the repros added VACUUM which isn't on our trucks anyway...

That is an air pressure gauge from a Bruin / Brigadier / Titan 90 / Astro 95. . Stared at those gauges for many years. This is a tach that goes with it. Name: 20181124_122725.jpg
