I have an '88 4runner Dlx 5-speed, 22re and it has no tac. does anyone know where i can get a new instrument cluster with a tac and everything and how much would it be?

I've been watching the JY's for em...one place quoted me $80 for when they have em...i'm sure i can find another place where they are cheaper...

Cant you just go to a junk yard and get the matching guage cluster out of an sr5? Hooking up a tach is really simple

Irish Death

That is true, they are plug-n-play but alas all the 4runners in the junkyards i've been too have been missing the cluster...patiently waiting till one appears!

not really answering your question
but I added a 2" tach to my truck.. I put it at the bottom of the a-pillar, on top of the vent which blows on the drivers window.. 2" so it's not too big, and its in the corner deep enough that it doesn't obstruct my view at all..
think I paid $20 for it.. 4 wire hook up.. ign 12 V, Ground, switched light source, tach signal

Thanks. ill check the JY's and maybe look into a dash mounted one instead

junk yards ok but those gauges go real fast...check ebay sometimes people are sellen them on there. also ive seen a few on craigslist. ive got an 88 pickup and i swapped the no-tach cluster for an 84 sr5 cluster. but i got it for free. i thought id have to wire in the tach, volt, and oil gauges but they just worked when i hooked it up.

oh and the only thing you may have to change on your rig is the oil pressure sender...

send Death Cougar a PM, he's a member here who works at Nix99, a Toyota/Lexus yard here in Wa.....

do you have pic of this set up.
I've been thinking of doing the same kinda thing, or using a 3 piller pod for other guages too.
