I want a tach and gear indicator light on my dash.
So I have a 1991 v6 with an Auto trans with the shifter on the column. My instrument gauge has the large speedo and no tach.
I got hold of an sr5 instrument cluster but to use it I will not have the gear selector lights.
How did the 91 automatic trucks with the shifter on the column show the gear shift indicator lights.
Was there such a truck with an auto trans, shifter on the column and a tach, as well as gear shift indicator light on the dash?
Thanks

I don't think pre 95 trucks had shift on the column. All 4runners and trucks I have seen where floor mounted with the console indicator. The cluster is almost plug and play.

the older 2wd's had a column shifter. as for a shift indicator light youll need to buy an aftermarket tach to put on your dash. i have one it was pretty easy to install, i dont really pay attention to the light though its just for looks i guess. ill post a pic of it later or there may be one in my build thread

@ loquito: I've got a 91 column shift, but no tach on the cluster. I'll post a photo as soon as I get the truck back home if you'd like, but my cluster is probably the same as yours.
-offtopic: good luck finding a body lift for any older column shift since the shift linkage passes through the firewall next to the steering shaft.

Yes a photo would be cool.
