Ok 96 150 xlt 5.9 and 5 speed why no tach I have seen the auto truck with tachs why not the 5 speeds and can u Change the clusters out (install one with a tach)

 

yeah that is strange my 5 speed did not have a tach but its got the I6 so its not like i can blow the engine LOL

yes you can swap out gauge clusters its really easy to do all you do is remove the old gauges and put in the new you can even keep the correct mileage too

 

So the plugs will match and there a plug for the tach?? what about the gear selector in the cluster will look funny with P-R-N-D-2-1 and a stick in the floor and how do u keep the miles the same?

 

Just reuse the Speedometer fraction of the gauges, and get new mini-gauges and tach. I believe that will work...
