Tach cluster is finally in and working! Here are some highlights.
Pic #1 - First I hooked up the tach to verify it works. I had no reason to believe it didn't after sending it off to be fixed. Confirmed the rpm's with my SunPro.
Pic #2 - Pulled the dash and the three different bezels to get access to the gas gauge. Had to make sure the old small one I have works. That would suck if it didn't... Good thing it does!
Pic #3 - Pulled the original cluster out. Note: It is very easy to break off the mounting tab on the left side of the housing! Do the squarebody community a service and try to avoid breaking it!
Pic #4 - Transferred the original speedo, voltmeter and coolant temp to the tach housing, along with the small gas gauge and the rebuilt tach. I had previously painted the housing gloss white.
Pic #5 - Just a pic with the black inner bezel installed.
