Gauge Cluster
As some of yall may know, my speedometer bounces around and my gas tanks dont register. I have tested everything and come to the conclusion I need a new cluster. Where can I find a new cluster cheep. I found them on www.fordpartsonline.com, but is there any other places. Also I dont have a tach on my current cluster, but ca nI buy one with the tach and will it work?

www.fordpartsonline is a dealer. It's a division of Atascadero Ford, about 90 minutes north of me. They are the best price I have found for just about everything, and they have a huge supply of parts that other dealers no longer carry. I had to go to them to get my e-brake cable when it broke because none of the local dealers carried them anymore.
Take care,

Reguarding his odometer. Whos gonna verify his milage? The odom is digital and has to be preset to Beasties current mileage if he gets a new one, right? I've done this tons on Saturns and they wont let us have a guage cluster unless the manager verifies the odometer mileage. Who's gonna believe Beastie when he says theres only 3147 miles on his truck?

The mileage is stored in the PSOM. That's why you are supposed to have it replaced by a dealer who sets the replacement unit to the same mileage as your original unit. If you buy a used one at a boneyard, it'll drop right in with no mods required.
BTW I have a complete cluster w/o tach from my 96 that's for sale, including a PSOM with about 36K miles on it. Interested? Contact me privately.

PSOM = Programmable Speedometer/Odometer Module
Per the factory shop manual:
"NOTE: Federal law requires that the odometer in any replacement speedometer must register the same mileage as that registered on the removed speedometer/odometer. Service replacement speedometer/odometer and odometer modules with mileage preset to actual vehicle mileage are available through Ford Electronic Service Centers. In nearly all instances, the mileage continues to accumulate i the odometer memory even if the odometer does not display mileage. This mileage can usually be verified by electronic service centers. Contact a service center to receive a replacement speedometer/odometer or odometer module with the mileage preset to actual mileage.
