Tachometer

Hello,

I recently bought a '93 Ranger that did not have a tach, and went through the same excercise. What I ended up doing was getting a stock instrument cluster from a '93 Explorer which had a tachometer. I swapped speedometer heads from the Explorer cluster and my Ranger cluster and now have the factory tach. Your stock wiring already has the feed for the tachometer, so you don't have to do any wiring changes. Just plug the connectors into the new cluster, and everything works.

The cluster out of the Explorer cost me $50 at a local junkyard.

I did see a website from a guy that installed a tach in the 4x4 control area....
http://ourworld.cs.com/My93rangerXLT/tach/tach.html

He has some instructions on how he hooked things up on that page. Good luck.

BTW, there is a post down the page about
"Adding Tachometer to a '93 Ranger"
with a little more info.
