If I understand you right, you have all three clusters, then just use the one with the speed warning in it and buy a plastic lens for the tach and vacume gauges, look at all the metal backs and you should be able to cut them out with not to much trouble.
I installed a tach,speed warning buzzer, and clock in mine.

I read you post again and you state you have the clusters for all three. Then use the insert for the vacuum gauge cluster, it should be cut already, then cut the opening for the tach with snipes Then use back metal peice for the tach and drill a hole in the back of it for the speed warning cable and use the front bezal for the speed warning cluster so your knob will be there.

Hope this helps.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs. Last edited by Andy4639; 01-26-2003 at 06:15 PM.
