Instrument Cluster Swap Question
I have been reading on doing the instrument cluster swap for one with the tach and it looks like 92-93 are compatible and 94-95 are compatible. What about going from a 250 into a 150. A local wrecking yard has a couple 94 250's with gas motors and I have a 95 150. Headed there tomorrow and will try and grab the cluster out of a 250 if it will work.

As long as you are going with those years and as long as it's a gas motor you should be okay. Me, I went with a '94 Lightning 120mph cluster for my '94 LB 5 speed and used the plastic PRNDL block off plate off my original cluster....

Great! My bezel is smashed around one of the vents and a local yard just got a 94 F250 gas in the other day.

Well they had a 92 150 with no bezel but the cluster was in perfect shape, too bad it wasn't a couple years newer. The 250 had a broken bezel and no cluster. Came away empty handed this time, oh well.

I think they’re about $40 for the cluster at my Pullapart. Did you need the bezel too? I don’t think one of the vents was 100%, but it was in pretty good shape overall.

I have the bezel, mine just has some cracks around the left vent so I'm just on the lookout for one in really good condition.

1992 F-150 XLT instrument cluster w/tach
The bezel was gone, I pulled a week or to ago, but left it on the seat since one of the vents was a little broken... saved someone some trouble!

They are physically identical but NOT electrically compatible. Even the 92 to 96 E-series van clusters are physically the same as the F-series clusters but they are not electrically compatible with any years of the F-series trucks.
You can repin the vehicle's harness to make it work as I did when I put a F-series tach cluster into my 95 E350 Bus.
