Dash Cluster w/ Tachometer Part Number?

I am also known for long winded responses at times, but this one is one that's near dumber than it should be... . If the cluster you have has bulbs in the trans light area and 4x4 and such might as well pull those bulbs, I had to pull mine after I put it in because of an annoying theft light I think it was, maybe trans... leave the check gauges if it's there, that's your low fuel light at about 3 gallons left which is annoying and convenient at the same time (I get ~23-25mpg, freaks me out early...)

My truck is 2wd 5 spd manual so no indicators for 4x4 or auto.
I picked this cluster because it's also out of a 2wd 5 spd manual.
I won't know what indicators are different in this tach cluster until I get it, but I really hope the layout is close to mine.

I was just joking around a bit.
Information is a good thing and I appreciate the insight.

I know that, and I appreciate it. I wasn’t being defensive, just explaining a little bit. Trust me, we are good, all is good.

The tach equipped cluster was delivered earlier today. I looked it over and it looks to be in good condition.
4 out of 6 main bulbs were blown and the other 2 were cloudy with a chance of burnout so I'll just replace them all before I put it in the truck.
All the little indicator lights look okay. I did a continuity check on 3 but it was too hard trying to hold the tiny bulbs and probe the hair sized ends with the meter so I just settled for a visual inspection.

I might pull my cluster out tomorrow if it's nice out ( it's been raining about every day here with rare exceptions)
I just re read this article regarding the odometer swap-

Very good write up. I won't be messing with rolling the other odometer, I'll just swap mine over.
I do have a question regarding the 3 way jumpers he made in the pics-
I can't make out what he used as the T section. Can anyone break that down for me? It looks like a spade connector but I can't figure out what the other piece is.

Rick W- In your step by step tutorial you posted here (thanks again) you had something very similar but only used the Top Right + stud and the Bottom Left - stud to calibrate the gauge prior to removing the needle and to re test after the odometer swap.
Does this give the same reading as using a pair of 3 way test leads and making a connection to all 4 studs?
If so, I'll just do it your way since I already have normal 14g gator clip jumper wires but I don't have any 3 way leads.
