Warren99 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 I still have my trucks original cluster, its just a plain 89 base model cluster with dummy lights and no tach. If I get the same style cluster from an 87 that has a tach and gauges, can I just unscrew the original speedo and swap it out with no problems? The only reason I wanna do this is for the odometer.

eaglescout526 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Yes you can swap the speedo with no issues as long as the housing is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Htchevyii Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 You will need to swap the oil and temp sensors for the gauge type senders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted July 13, 2022 Author Share Posted July 13, 2022 Already done that, I have the black newer style tach cluster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 the odo itself is adjustable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren99 Posted July 14, 2022 Author Share Posted July 14, 2022 How hard is it to adjust? I always kinda figured it would be made difficult on purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 the link in my signature has a writeup on it. It's illegal to falsify your odo for the purpose of tricking a future buyer to think the truck has less miles than it really has. it's not illegal to make your truck correct.

JYau Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I've done the same thing to my jump as well as adjusting the odometer. It is doable and from what I remember there is a small C-clip you have to remove to pull the number wheels out. Careful with that as you don't want to lose that clip.
