Manual or Digital guages

Just wondering, what you guys running air bags have had the best luck with, I've got digital now but thinking about changing over to manual guages, because mine never has given correct readings.

 

never used gauges, except for the seat of the pants on my air ride set up

 

Uhh, do you know where you're at? The word "DIGITAL" is about accepted as "BILLET" around these parts.

 

That's because of the Trad bags

 

i've never had good luck with digi. gauges, i always run mechanicals...

 

The HAMB is a TRADITIONAL Hot Rod & Custom Car Forum... Sorry if the "trad bags" hurt your feelings.

There is nothing traditional about digital gauges.

 

don't use digital anything, not because a hate the way they look, but they suck, all electronic gauges(most) work off of resistance, too many problems to happen. Most mechanical gauges aren't exactly right but you get a mechanical link to whatever your watchin'.

 

never digital!! they jump around too much while driving. always liked the KP dual needle gauges on my stuff

I started out with two dual needle gauges....ended up going with an air management system that uses ride height sensors. Now all I do is hit a switch and it goes to where we've programmed it every time.

 

Good God, man, snap out of it.

 

no digital

 

What's a digital gauge?

They have those?

Rode in a car years ago with digital guages and a cowl vent in the rain. VERY entertaining.

 

LMAO ..... good one!

 

You know that's because the pressure in the air spring is constantly changing as it compresses and extends, right?

Use the digital gauges if you want; they'll have a better resolution than the analog. Just be sure that they're hidden since they look really out of place. That said, the analog ones do as well - too modern looking.

 

Friends don't let friends etc.

 

Digital guages belong in rice burners.

 

digital...... baaad

 

the guy at airride told us that there is a 6 pound variance in the reading of the gauges.They are expensive crap.

 

I'll let these and the wheel go cheap

 

Digital yes.............. for a camera

 

Haneline has some analog dual pressure gauges. I think they get them from Beede. We could get some and re-screen the dial to match your car, make them look lod, etc. Digital, electrical and mechanical gauges all have a 2% tolerance. Its more about the sender than the gauge.

I have a set of Dakota Digital that I think would look good in a roadster. They are a Oneoff set a are not the standard billet look. They actually look cool and could be center mounted or set at the driver side. I will sell them if anyone is interested.

 

You can glance at mechanical gauges and know everything is okay, digital gauges you have to read; sometimes a second extra is too much.

 

And we all know how hard it is for some folks to READ !!!

 

DIGITAL? i'm not even a fan of classic instruments. Green or black SW'S my fav.
