Guage Cluster Swap
I have a 85 150 and was wanting to replace my guage cluster with one from a Bronco.The one I was wanting to use has the factory tach and all guages instead of dummy lights.If I swap it other than wiring the tach are the senders something else I will need or will the ones from the dummy light work on the oil and batt guages?

The short answer is not very easily.
If your truck came with Ammeter and oil gauges already and no tach it would be a plug and play operation.
Since your truck just has the idiot lights you will need to swap a complete Main wiring harness for a 1985 or 1986 Ford truck, with ammeter and oil gauges to make this work.
