Buy a decent tire gauge

[sixdogs]

I stumbled across a tire gauge that actually works and isn't all that expensive. It's a $45 racing tire gauge that can be bought at lots of places or mail ordered from Jegs or Speedway and I think both have free shipping. I've spent far more in total on junk gauges over the years and they were mostly junk. Anyway here it is...

Access Denied

It says access denied but the link works. If you need to look it up it's Moroso #89560 and it's a 0 to 60 PSI gauge


Anyway, it works and I use it on all my tires including truck, tractor, bike, etc. It's spot on as far as I'm concerned. An accurate gauge really helps with tire wear and longevity and lets me feel secure about tractor tire psi. Just an FYI.

EDIT--If you buy one make sure to get the optional rubber cover with it.

Nice gauge but doesn't look like it works with filled tires.

Also, you can change 'Access Denied' to any text you want.

I tried to change the access denied text but couldn't figure it out. How do you do it?

You click on the hyperlink icon and put the link (http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/owning-operating/326534-buy-decent-tire-gauge.html#post3961033)
in to the box then you take out the text that is duplicated and put in whatever you want

Sixdogs,

Where is the air gauge manufactured? I noticed a lot of the old US company names have gone global,

Not sure. I looked and couldn't find any info on their website and the tire gauge is out in the barn. If no one else knows I'll let you know later. I'm guessing US made because race people are like that but you never know.

Also found it on Amazon and I'm looking through the reviews to see if anyone mentions where it's made. If you get one be sure to get the optional rubber cover.

I just recently bought two "Joes Racing" models from Amazon, they are the best I've ever had:

0-60 for the cars: Amazon.com: Joes Racing 32307 (0-60) PSI Tire Pressure Gauge: Automotive

0-30 for the tractors: Amazon.com: Joes Racing 32306 (0-30) PSI Tire Pressure Gauge: Automotive

I have had the Sears Craftsman digital tire gauge for about 4 years and it works very well. Still on original batteries. I don't know what the upper pressure limit is but I check up to 80 PSI on my trailer tires with it. I just checked the online price and it is on sale now for $13.49 which is about half price.

Sixdogs, If you click on the second Amazon image it shows the back of the package and it is Made in the USA.

Won't work for me. Truck rear tires are 80 psi, horse trailer tires are 110 psi.

I like this style better, check - fill - check, without changing from gauge to air hose and back to gauge.
