f600 gauge cluster

Post by mljjones67 »

How hard are these to wire into a 67 f-250. The cluster I have has gauges not warning lights. Thanks for the help everyone!

Nothing to it. It's either a direct plug or close to it.

I am looking at two on ebay one is painted white and one is painted black with chrome they are both in pretty good shape. I would really like the chrome one though. Anyone know about how much $$ these should be? Also blue oval truck parts has a nice billet dash panel for $159.00 minus the gauges. Gauges range from $260.00 too $700.00 If I go that route classic auto meter gauges will look good in there. Plus i live right down the road from auto meter so I can get there help putting it together.Thanks all

I'll second the recomendation for the billit panel. I bought the 6 gauge set for my truck. You'll have to have a plastic bezel to cut up for the install. The billit need constant polishing here where it's humid.

That painted f600-700 panel will go around $100.00 and the chrome one (it is VERY nice) will probably go $250.00 or higher.

The rewire is very easy.. about the only thing you have to change and reuse from your original cluster is the flasher wires and the flasher switch. Plugs into the top right and left corners of the harness plug.

I found one, actually several, but the 67-72 I was looking at they wanted 75 for the entire cluster, guages and everything. There were a bunch of 73-79 f600's too but I wasn't sure if they would work.
