Are you making a custom dash and gauge cluster?
|
no stock dash, cluster..maybe. The only thing that works(ed) was the tach. I might just make my own panel. I use my gps for a speedo since the plastic gear is stripped in the trans, and im not spending 400 bucks on an actual GPS speedo. I do need a tach, will probably go aftermarket. I would like to fit as many gauges as i can in the stock opening, might be hard though.
|
Does the rear end have a VSS? If it does you could use the factory speedo I bet
|
it does indeed, thanks for that. an auto meter programmable speedo will work great!

You're welcome! I still think a custom aluminum diamond plate dash would be killer... Then all you need is a couple of hole saws for gauges and a couple of recessed boxes for like a radio and heater controls
|
i shoulda recessed the filler some more but oh well. shes sturdy.
https://i207.photobucket.com/albums/...psqyy9ds4w.jpg https://i207.photobucket.com/albums/...pscjhnen5g.jpg Got a bunch of stuff done yesterday, gotta list it all out so its out of my mental checklist fuel filler minus paint wiper wiring wire linkage bushings organized the headlight wiring drained ATF from zf5. need to reseal the PTO plates changed out a bulb in my boost gauge. hooked up my dome return to the light switch wiper, ignition and headlampo switches installed in their respective bracket put another pushbutton on my switch panel, and a blue light for high beam indication finished wiring for the tailights, hazards and turn signals work. made a pig tail for my aux reverse lamps put the correct shock bolts in need to clean my e pump pickup screen, collected some crud from the tank, that bowl is on there tiight horn install kit came in so i can put the tilt column in along with my wood grant wheel hooked up my blower wiring inside the cab, just need to make my relay pack under the hood installed megafuses for the alternator and glowplugs need to make one more bracket for exhaust tip and paint it black.
