NOS Gauges

Post by WP1 » Tue Apr 04, 2017 5:16 am

Does anybody know if these gauges are for CJ's ?? They're bigger than the typical WW2 round gauge , they're about 3' across. They came with a load of NOS MB/GPW parts and are made by Stewart Warner. Nice quality America made, not that cheap overseas crap.

Joel, I realize they're aftermarket, just wondering what they fit since they're much larger than WW2 gauges

None of the CJ-2A and CJ-3 Jeep gauges are 'back lit"Not sure what those fit, but SW does make replacements that fit different standard diameter gauges. CJ-hole is 2-1/8, and WC, CCKW, G-506 are all 2-1/8".

I remember a lot of this type SW Gauge being advertised in JC Whitney with a bracket to use on vehicles with idiot lights. Industrial equipment also. I have no clue what diameters on specific machines.

Pretty typical 2 5/8" hot rod/race car type gauges.
