cluster swap
 

I tried the search feature but could not find the answer to my question. I have a '95 F150 XLT, 300 ci six with a 5 speed manual trans and I'd like to swap the non tach cluster for one with a tach. I'm guessing that there may be some issues especially since most of the tach clusters probably came from trucks with the V8s and auto slushboxes....

Bought a cluster/ tach from Ebay which I received and installed yesterday; swap was simple and straightforward. It's too bad Ford didn't deem it necessary to make this cluster standard especially with the manual transmission trucks....

that's good information,because i was about to do the same thing to my truck since i have the 5 speed version as well. as far as the mileage goes did you swap the cluster over for that as well? Or did you just go with whatever mileage was on the new cluster? also did you have to swap over a blank out plate for the automatic gears to not show?

I popped out the speedo on the tach cluster and replaced it with my original speedo, thereby keeping my original mileage....
