Did you read the tech articles My dad put together years ago? All the info you need should be in there. If you do swap around some gauges and stuff in there only a true expert on these clusters will notice when its in the truck.

73-75
76-77
78-79

Were all their own years. 80 up are all interchangeable except 1980 was still the old Font on the gauges and 73-80 had a 100mph speedo. 81up had a 85mph speedo but I prefer the 81 up Font on the gauges better then the earlier years.
