It should have a tach already in the dash cluster if it is an E40D trans........tell us more about the truck. Check the door post tag and tell us what trans letter E or G.

Yep that's correct on the rpm sensor location. You should already have one as even without a tach the ecu that controlls the trans still needs to know how fast the motor is turning. I don't know for sure, but typically the wireing is already in place for the tach, all you would have to do would be to find an instrument cluster from a truck like yours but with a tack and plug and play

BTW my 1994 F-250 IDI TD has an e4od and factory tach.

good luck
