Ive had this done for a cupple weekk now and thought i would get some pics for you guys. Ill have some of the truck up tomarrow. I was busy today. on to the pics.

 

Looks Great man!

 

Wow good work bra. Is that a kit or all custom? Id like mine to look like that...

 

damn thats awesome

 

That is AWESOME!!!! I have to so do that to my truck!! Looks good! did you do the lights on your steering wheel (if u have buttoms on there) or the ones by your ext. light switch on the left of the steering wheel?

Nice though! Jealous

 

thanks guys yes all this is custom..this is all leds.saw a forum to do the mod and went for it and i am very happy that i did....tjtheman007 no not yet...i dont have the ***** yet to take out the air bag. knowing the luck i have it will go off when i pull it out and i dont want that and yes i did do the headlight and 4x4 lights too...4x4 isnt working got to see whats up with that

 

i really want to do this....

 

disconnect your battery and your air bag wont go off

 

Where is the forum you found about doing this?

 

ace if you really want to do it...whats stopping ya???? If ya need/want some help ill help ya
downey i know but it still give me the hebie gebie messing with the air bag
austin here ya go https://www.ranger-forums.com/forum2...ad.php?t=62796

 

MIght i add that i like the milage of your truck, lol. Im at 132,000 right behind ya, i have a 95 though.

 

lol thanks...im almost at 134,000....Sh** i got to do an oil change soon...oh ya get to work on her some more...oh well shes my b*** and i love her

 

actually that reminds me, i need an oil change too. Love mine too, just wish it was a newer and had 4x4 but ill live with and love wat i got!

 

yeah...i love mine...dont like the miles on it but oh well...and yes 4x4 is nice

 

actually disconnecting the battery wont stop the air bag from going off. they have capasitors to keep power to em while the key is off. if you wait like three hours after the battery is disconnected they might have drained enough by then. but they are easy to handle if your not dumb about it. all the connectors are designed to ground out when disconnected to prevent static electricity from setting them off and when carrying it keep the bag pointed away from you and just be gentel with it and you'll have no prblems

 

Yeah i read some stuff on here but it still scars me...i was also thinking about pulling the fuse too if i do it just to be on the safe safe safe side

 

not a bad idea. i just started wondering if that circut has fuses.... better go look in the owners manual. the only way i can see you setting em off is if you jam a screw driver in one of the connectors or something in that sense lol

 

work lol

 

NICE!!!!


What'd you end up using for the leds in the cluster? just like mine or plug ins??? I really like how yours is pretty damn evenly lit!! Mines got some pretty good coldspots.

You got any pics of the during process???





Link posted above is the build up of my cluster for those that don't know.

 

That's awesome. I must have this one day.

 

Looks great I really need to do this considering half of my guages have been out since I've bought the truck.
On a scale of 1 to 10 how hard was it?

 

All you have to do is turn the headlight switch on and it will drain the rest of the power. I think the buttons just pop off though, no need to remove the airbag.

 

on a scale from 1 to 10 it was about a 4 its really easy just time consuming...shane you have the 5 mm leds right...thats what i used

 

Looks real good

 

Nicely done, I did similar to my 94's dash with blue 194 LEDs. I will hopefully have the newer dash in this spring, yours adds motivation to do the swap.
