1960 Guage cluster - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ok guys heres one for you, Im wiring my buddys 1960 3/4 ton with a new ez wiring kit, everythings going smooth so far but I think im going to run into a snag. Im at the point where I am trying to wire up the factory cluster and I was wonmdering if any of y`all would have a wiring diagram of the guage cluster, (ammeter,temp speedo and fuel guages)
Also I noticed theres light holes that say tandem axle and I think gear shift? did 3/4 tons share the same cluster as a dually/1 1/2 ton and just wired differently?
The wires that are throwing me mainly is the light that has the pink and dark blue coming for it. whats that for?

Ps: in case you need it, 383 stroker hei (gm) 3 wire alt, under 80 amps, electric fan, fuse box in factory location, relocated fuel cell, 78 chevy 3/4 ton 4x4 chasis swap with 6" susp and 3" body lift. Ill take pics and try to post.

The "tandem lock", and "overspeed "lights could be found in almost all the clusters, my 65 1/2 ton has them, they are just not wired up, but you can faintly see them from residual light when the lights are on.

I do have 2 different types of the 60-63 standard cluster... one only has the provision for 1 blinker light, so I just wired up the right and left signal to it, its kind of cool, no matter whichway you go, there is only 1 indicator... the other standard cluster has 2 blinks, and the warning lights.

Do you have a standard cluster, or deluxe? they are different-deluxe has guages.

..0.. -standard
.'0'. -deluxe

thanks 4dranch that was what I needed! after along weekend I about got all the dash cluster figurred out thanks to the diagram.
conzcustom: This one actually has guages, an ammeter and a temp guage, and oil pressure guage. so because it has the temp guage and a dummy light for oil sender, where does the oil sender light go to? (dark blue and pink wires) oh yeah, only one turn signal indicator on this one too
