gen 1 guage cluster question

dukemartini · Sep 27, 2007

I have 88 ranger with the carbed 2.0 and a five speed, but i don't have a tach. I found a guage cluster on ebay that has a speedo and tach, the ad says it will fit in an 84-09/87 ranger/b2. :dntknw:

Is this true or will any gen 1 cluster fit into any gen 1 vehicle? Its cheap and i really want a tach, plus my speedo and trip odo don't work on my cluster.

any idea if there will be a tach wire already in the wire loom in my dash and this will be plug and play, or do i have to run a wire to the coil?

any help would be greatly appreciated

any gen1 cluster will fit be it ranger or bronco II it doesn't matter either will go in.

For the Gen 1 Ranger or Bronco II. You will need to run a additional wire for the tach to work. The tach cluster is not plug and play.

All Gen 2 clusters innerchange and are plug and play. You can add a tach without any additional wiring.

1993 and 1994 clusters are the only ones that innerchange with each other. So if you are going to add a tach to either one of the years, you can only use a cluster from one of these years. They look the same as the Gen 2 cluster but are not.

i have a 1994 ranger.. So what would i have to buy? and what would i have to do to add a tach

You will have to get a cluster from one of those years(93-94). Make sure that it is from those years only. It will be plug and play after that.
