70-72 cluster in 69 f100

Post by cjroddam »

i found a 70-72 f100...it has a good instrument cluster in it and was wondering if it will work in my 69 f100 without having to mod anything at all??

I think there is a section on here that shows the differences in the panels mainly being wiring. I would try looking at that.

Why is it that the trucks are always the best running vehicles in the family?

1969 did not have the printed circuit board but 70-72 did. 1970 "Only" is different than other printed circuit boards. The plugs will not work stock from the '69 ino the later years, and '70 won't work stock on later years. You would need to do some re-wiring.

Here is the location of info on this site to check out the cluster diferences:
