88-90 Factory Tachometer cluster RARE

This is a VERY trick set up. They didn't actually make tachometers for the trucks with the electric speedometers. This was properly modified by a speedometer shop here in Phoenix with a NOS tachometer and Fuel guage. This is probably be the ONLY one you will ever see designed to work for the 88-90 up SQUARE bodies or perfect if you have a later model electric transmission and want to keep the factory guages. Price is $200. It was over that in labor at the shop. I am more than happy to refer people to this shop once THIS one sells!

Re: 88-90 Factory Tachometer cluster RARE

I would be interested if the number and lettering fonts were the same. Good luck though.

Re: 88-90 Factory Tachometer cluster RARE

Will this work with the '91 4L80E? I see it doesn't have an O/D gear indicator. What transmission was this figured for?

Re: 88-90 Factory Tachometer cluster RARE

The gear selector is independent from the cluster itself and can be swapped out for one with OD.

Re: 88-90 Factory Tachometer cluster RARE

This IS still available and I feel a fair price for the work that is done to it. I know this isn't for everyone but they are hard to find with all mounting tabs intact in this condition.

Re: 88-90 Factory Tachometer cluster RARE

The one above is not the one I have for sale. Another member posted that to show what is involved to switch the shift indicator. The one for sale is in the top post.

Re: 88-90 Factory Tachometer cluster RARE

Thought this was sold to a potential buyer but he doesn't have the money right now so this is still available.
