Anyone here using the Glow Shift gauges? What has been your impression?
Where'd you buy them and what was the cost? How did the installation go?
I'm looking for a set for a 1997 F250 Heavy Duty 7.3 Diesel.

Thanks
Jeff

 

I put the Glow Shift gauges in the 97 after I purchased it. The cost was around $200 IIRR. After running them for 5 years, I woul say they are ok, but I like the Isspros I put in the 96 better. The pod that came with the Glow Shifts had some little issues, had to modify the keepers on the gauges so they would fit straight, and to me the angle of the pod is a little off, making the gauges a little harder to read. On the other hand, the Isspros were over twice the cost, and were a little easier to install, as they are all electric. So in a nut shell, the Glow Shifts are better than nothing, but as with everything quality always costs a little more.

 

I had the Sunpro diesel gauge kit and never had a problem. The are under 200

 

got glow shift for the trans temp and boost, boost gauge has never been right, right out of the box it hasn't been zeroed, goes to about 3psi with engine off nut still functions fine. haven't had problems other than that.

 

Thanks for your inputs....I'll be going with the Autometer Phantom white faced gauges and pod......

Spend the extra money for a quality gauge the first time. Isspro and Autometer are both American made... I prefer Isspro myself.

 

Had trouble with my glo shifts also.

 

my glow shifts are good so far, had them for a few years. there fuel pressure gauges die all the time so I gave up on that. I just add the max tow trans temp gauges that's digital and analog and I love it so far. its pretty dang bright though!

 

What Chase said. I bougth Isspro and none issue with them.

 

I picked up 4 last month and the pillar .....still sitting on the side because its still just too damn cold....another one of those future projects but soon...
