    What is this?

    I bought a box at a yard sale with some dies, tools, and THIS GAUGE. I think it's for reloading, but don't know. Does anyone know what is? How much is it worth? Does anyone need it?


    Thanks James

    It looks like a dial indicator for motor shaft alignment. Funny, I've been needing one of these. Don't know how much that one is worth, is there a manufacturer on it (i.e. Starrett). I would guess that they may have been using it to measure cases to check how far they were out of round.

        It's a dial indicator with a clamp on stand/holder set.

        Not sure what the heavy duty looking spanner wrench thing is though......

            Once I stopped driving I was able to see that it is a Starrett dial indicator. I'm interested in buying if you're interested in selling. Not sure how much that particular set goes for, but shoot me a dollar amount that you want for it.

                Looks like the setup you'd use to do rearend, pinion depth/ backlash with.

                  That's what I did with my set, but anything you care to mount it to, you can measure. A nice set.
