I’ve been wanting to do this for years on my 87 pickup. Just now looking into it…never realized how easy it would be. Thanks for sharing!

Fixing an input shaft leak on my trans so it’s out. Speedo has been out too. I needed this quick little video. Nice and to the point. 👍🏼👍🏼

Just so everyone knows you can’t do this swap and just run the truck right after. You have to get the oil pressure sender from the SR5 trim truck 1985-1992, DLX oil pressure sender will fry the oil gauge on the new cluster ... too high of a voltage. It’s about 25$ for an aftermarket one or find one at the yard for cheaper.

Where can i buy them. I recently snatched a sr5 instrument cluster for my dlx and I’m planning to do a swap

@@Random_Car_Guy I bought one from autozone. The duralast branded box was actually the OEM Sankai part inside. It may be a rebuilt part with the original housing but it works fine. You’ll also need the pigtail adapter for the sr5 oil sender wire … might have to track that down on forums or the junkyard if you harness doesn’t already have it. The plastic has a U shaped cutout that allows the connector to slide over the circular brass nub on the end of the sender. The spade connection on the sender is not the correct connection.

Thank you for showing how to remove the speedometer cable.

Thanks but!! Been trying figure out for years! I mean years!. In your video just took me 3:42 minutes. Thanks bunch!

Thanks gonna do this to my 1985 pick up!!!

hallo from which the cable for the rotammet was streamed

Is the tachometer accurate when just hot wiring straight to the coil ground?

Interesting, I did the cluster swap in my 88 4Runner tonight without adding the wire. Tach works but it seems to read low. And the oil pressure gauge reads high key on and drops when running 🤷

Has anyone had issues with the temp gauge not working well after the swap? I have an 89 4runner .

Your video skipped the hardest part. How did you get your hand behind the cluster to release the speedo? Thanks..JC

Hey Duke Offroad, Your videos are great, especially for the beginner gearhead I'm turning into. Really easy to follow. I have an 87 4runner that is giving me some fits, neither the odometer/speedometer are working but the tachometer is. The light in the board went our as well, but the emergency lights (engine/low fuel) still work. The fuel gauge only barely works (but that's been a long time problem, it shows full, half full and then drops to empty when it has about 50 miles left in gas). By pulling this out could I find the problem? Or might you recommend looking for an electric connection issue somewhere else? All my fuses look great. I've had 3 mechanics look at it and they all say it's 'too expensive' to warrant the trouble.

one day, just not on my truck

So just plug and play with a sending unit change?? NO wiring changes at the harness with going from a DLX cluster to a full gauge cluster? Is it really that easy

Ok, excuse my ignorance. I have an 88 pickup with the 22re. What year (s) cluster am I supposed to use to do the swap? Thanks for your help.

Tacoma, I'm not sure on 3rd gen 4Runner interchangeability with Tacoma but 4Runners went 2nd 90-95.5 then 3rd 96+ so if 3rd gen does swap you will want 96+, not pre 95.

But, just incase u actually have a pickup, not a Tacoma, 89-95 pickup clusters exchange. Early 3rd gen pickup was cable speedo vs late was electric so sometimes the unit on the other end must be swapped to make em cooperate. 90-95.5 2nd gen 4Runner clusters are the same also.
