Shane Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Question in the subject line. I have been lookin for another full gauge cluster. Just curious if one out of 4cycl will work in a 4.0??? Thanks
mnkyboy Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 I don't think I have ever seen full gauges come with a 2.5l ,I imagine if they did they would swap over the same way 4.0l gauges swap to a 2.5l
Eagle Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 The gauges work the same except that the tachometer needs to be recalibrated. The 88 - 90 tach has a potentiometer that allows you to adjust it -- the early tachs do NOT have an adjustment so the tach has to match the engine.
mvusse Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Some 87s have the adjustment on the tach as well. At least the one I swapped into the Purple People Eater did. It came out of an 87 XJ Wagoneer, has the blue letters and everything.
chastings Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 IMHO I wouldn't even bother trying to adjust it. There are tons of clusters still available that will just drop right in. There were several "blue plastic" clusters with tach and gauges at my local jy last time I was there. Mine cost 30 bucks.
chastings Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Fezzik may still have one available, look in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=30135
