Welllllll i dont think so.

But maybe? You would have to look at how many prongs are on the front side of the dash that we dont see.

What im saying is, pull apart your dash, and when you get to your gauges, the also just pull out, look to see if there are empty prongs behind one of them, if so it might work, if not ive read they arnt to hard to install.

Hope it helps.

Adam

I say you guys check out the group purchases forum http://www.fordtrucks.com/forums/for...s=&forumid=100 I am not sure of the rules, but sounds like you guys have enough people. Also check in with the 87-96 pickup guys! Check out the rules and talk to Ken.

HATE, CRAZED, MRIT...go to www.streetracerparts.com I have already sent in a request to have them make the gauges for early to mid 80s Broncos and F150s. But they will only build new ones if there are 10 people willing to buy into it. I have already agreed to send in a gauge cluster for the template. I want em for mine as well. They will cost about $60

Hey Billybob, I checked out the model development program they have, but couldn't find anything for our trucks. Also does the guage cluster your sending in have a tach? Cause mine does.

When the info appears I will post this on another bronco site I go to to get more people in.
