Newbie with some questions? Custom Dash?

[skahide]

I purchased my first full size truck and it was the truck or my dreams, a 1982 GMC 1/2 ton High Sierra, stepside, swb. Has a 350, 4 in the floor, and a 12 bolt rearend. I know nothing about rearends but i hear a 12 bolt is great. The truck has some floor cancer but the truck is in pretty good shape. Heres my question. I have NO working guages despite taking the dash apart and checking all connections. Has anyone changed their dash to a different vehicles dash like a 88 Camaro? The guages are almost exactly the same but im not sure how hard it would be to bolt in the dash. ANY HELP WITH AND SUGGESTIONS WILL HELP.
