cluster8791tach.jpg '87-91 Tach Cluster Parts
IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it.

The '87-91 cluster is built very much like the '92-96, which makes it much easier to repair & clean than '80-86 clusters.  It's also possible to remove the needles from their shafts, peel the black gauge faces off the clear gauge bodies, and scrape the green paint off to change the gauges' color.  Gauge faces commonly detach on these old trucks, but they're easy to glue back on.  The needles can also be repainted with fresh hi-vis orange; the factory orange fades to this urine-yellow with sun exposure over the years.


The speedo is NOT directly interchangeable between tach & non-tach clusters, so it's difficult to keep the original odometer reading when swapping clusters.
