Can anyone point me to where I can buy a quality flow/ pressure gage setup.

A dealership I do alot with has 13 locations and they share one. So yes I bet they are expansive. The psi gauge part is easy.

The 50 gpm otc model is 2 grand.
The 75gpm OTC model is 2800.00

I can buy the Flow meter for 350 dollars and then I would have to add the pressure gauge and regulator.

I would rather buy one assembled so thats why I was asking.

Bailey Hydraulics has a 32gpm flow meter. I bought one several years ago and added an inline needle valve and a gauge to the port on the meter. It's been excellent. Not many guys have aneed for a 75 gpm unit. Here's a link to flow meter results in their catalog.

Those are similar to what I found.
I just feel like it would be in my best interest to have a way to check my equipment every so often to keep it performing it's best.
