The speedometer is not hooked up yet because I still need parts off a non electronic NP205. The 91 Dodge had electronic speed sensor instead of a cable driven. Once I get the proper stuff for the t case I will be able to hook it up to the new cable I have.

Onto the rest of the gauges. The factory fuel gauge works like original. The oil pressure gauge and temperature gauge are both mechanical. I have them connected to the 6bt in the closest oil and coolant port locations and they work great. I chose to not use the ammeter cause that is just asking for a fire. Hope this helps.

Hey Luther . What was the conclusion on the mech speedo p/u for the 205 ? Use older stuff off a 205 ? Let me know as I have same problem !

Truck looken good ! nice to be able to use it I bet !
