question on adding tach. on 96 ranger
i'm about to swap my truck from an automatic transmission to a manual...i'm changing the steering column soon after the transmission and all is in and i'm looking at upgrading my guage cluster..the one i would like to get has a tach on it...how hard would it be to hook this up to work?

try to find a cluster out of a 95-97, anything newer will work, but it will be green not blue like the 95-97's and some of the lights will be wrong.
when i open my door it says "check fuel cap" haha.
oh well, it works, and i have a tach.

I have a similar problem. mine is a 97 man without tach. looking to something similar. but the other issue is that were forgeting is that if we swap out the cluster were also getting a different odometer readout. EX:my truck has 110k swapping to a cluster that reads 140k. <-not true but thats my example.
sorry about the hijack but i figured its more or less involving your situation as well. what years fit the 97 and if i can only find auto's (With the P R N D 2 1 crap at the bottom) can i remove that?
