M1010 gauges

[panzerwillie]

So i being working on our M1010 AC12 HWY convoy between jobs , install digital gauges for boost ,oil Pressure, water temps and volts i choose digital because where easy to fit in the warning light places , even do they are on , there are not connected to the sensors, also go a A/C volts for the inverter more work including a 99 6.5 turbo diesel converter to mechanical IP and 4L80E more to folllow

Looks great. Really cool stuff.

I have seen a few other people do this and it has always interested me because I hate the dummy lights in the older trucks.

I would assume you put in new sensors and wiring for these?

Would be great if you could post some part numbers or a link to where you got them

I got them from EBAY there all over there and yes all new sensors that will be in place with new engine thank you

Do you have any running hours on these gauges yet? If so, do you still like them? I am hesitant about the inexpensive digital gauges but dont want to spend money on frills.

Thanks!

I would LOVE to do the same thing but with mechanical guages. Mabey one day I'll get the time to sort it out.

I dont really care for a tube with hot oil under pressure snaking around under the dash. lol

On mechanical gauges, do you know what the pressure range should be on a 6.2? I have seen gauges that go to 60 and gauges that go to 100.

The gauge in my civilian 6.2 goes to 80 FWIW.
