fellas, i need a tach, i have the electronic sensor on the xfer case housing and i have the ip housing sensor, what are my options? Should i go with a JY stock one or is there an alternator based sensor band tach that i can buy? Any help appreciated. I know banks makes a diesel option tach but not sure how it runs!! help!!

 

Uhaul had them listed on their website :

60.79 the last I checked the dealer wanted 85.00 for the same.
A junk yard is a possibility but it might not be any better than the one you have already.

i dont have one, thats the problem, just the sensors, no wires, no spot in the cluster, nothing. So i need one like the autometer option, i think im going that route. I kind of answered my own question, just frustrated at its price. the autometer 2888, adapts to the alternator. think itll work?

 

Here ya go Wreck 1986 Ford Diesel Engine 6.9 Tach Gauge Cluster - eBay (item 180616408766 end time Feb-22-11 15:05:45 PST) $125
Whoops wrong year!

 

thanks farmert, i appreciate you looking but i think m just going to get the autometer tach and throw it in the pillar. It'd look a lot neater and for my speedo i think honestly i am going to go with a GPS unit that can mount in place of the current one. It would be nice to have a speedo and have it not me my tom tom lmao. As for my year, it would be 9th gen, 92-96/97(SD)
