4x4 Light on Sport Track cluster??

Yep, if i got a cluster from a 2002 sport track that was NOT 4x4, and put it in my truck. Would the 4x4 light up when i turned it on?

Thanks

If you got a 4x2 cluster, it won't even have the 4x4 lights on it.

I'm sure you can always buy the 4x4 overlay and pop a bulb in the back of it, because i remember seeing a 4x4 high/4x4 low spots for the bulbs on the back of my 4x2 cluster.

This is the back of my standard cluster. I'm guessing where there are empty holes, you can stick lights in them and just buy the 3rd overlay w/ 4x4 lights like i said in my other post. Just a thought...

I emailed a guy from ebay about a cluster for my dads F-150 4x4. This cluster he was looking at was from a 4x2 expedition.....Now the guy claims all you have to do is put the bulb in, and it already has the 4x4 Overlay thing on the cluster.....So, is the 4x2 guage i want to buy, going to be the same as the one for an f-150?

If it was me, and I couldt get the light on the cluster to work I would just put two little led's somewhere on the dash in two colors, one for 4hi, and one for 4lo
