YJ 1/2" Vacuum Tree

Anyone else using a YJ 1/2" vacuum manifold outfit.
I've had the two-valve model that came with the black 3/8" hoses and 4-in-1 ball valve adapters for several years now and I generally like it.
The only thing that has always bothered me about it is that the 2-1/2" 3/2/3 compound gauge on top was made in Mexico and the gauge's crystal has continuously fallen off since new, for no apparent reason. Never had this problem with my YJ manifold gauges, so hopefully all of their 2-1/2" gauges haven't gone to pot like this.
