Rally-pac

[WORTH]

Gentlemen, haven't been here in quite a few years , only Mustang I have left is a '67 my brother bought from Aero on here 15 years or so ago. My father was restoring it when he passed last year so I'll probably get back to it if I live long enough. But to why I am here now, I am restomoding a '66 F-250 that will become an air ride F-100 4x4, and I want to put a Rally-Pac on it, but I want to replace the tac in it with an air pressure gauge, does anyone know what diameter the gauges are on the Rally-Pac. The one I was going to use has turned up missing, either I misplaced it in my shop, which is possible or somebody walked off with it.

If I have time I will measure mine tonight. I'm thinking 3 inches but i'll check

Worth, if you aren't using your tach I'm looking for one for my rally pac. I removed mine to have it repaired but it was lost in a fire. If you would like to sell your tach let me know!

Thanx, I'm hoping for 2-5/8" or close, I found these guys that can pretty much match any gauge.

Dusting off this old thread since Triton just got back to me. I thought I was slow.

TOS did you ever get a measurement on the gauge size? Life slowed me down a bit again so a couple of weeks ago I got my boss to leave me off the schedule for a couple or 3 months since we're slow this time of year anyway. So I brought the '66 chassis in to hopefully make it air ride. I know it's a bit larger than a Stang, but if anyone is interested this is what I've done sofar.

At 66 this will probably be my last restoration, although my boys will probably do the Mustang at my shop if I manage to finish the pickup before I die.

This restomod is purely for fun. It started life as a 1966 F250 2wd , 300 L6 4speed. I sawed the frame off in front of the rear cab mount crossmember and spliced in the front of a 1979 F-100 4wd frame. Then where the frame straightens out behind the cab I cut it again and removed 11 inches, to make it a 116" wheelbase.
Now I'm fabricating a 4 link air ride for the rear from scratch. I got most of it done, I'm missing the rear shock mounts,( shocks are on the way), so I just moved to the front. Right now my shop is a mess again so I'll probably just clean the shop again today.

I hear ya. I spend more time searching for the tool I just put down than I do actually working.
