86 Dash

Post by wewillsurvive »

Anyone have a dash like in my 86 GW that you have swapped to aftermarket gauges and fabbed a panel for it? I would like to see your ideas.

Alternators, winches, 4x4, guns all have the same issue if you don't have any knowledge of them usually bad things will happen. Serehill

Dakota Digital Dash. You can buy it through BJ's Offroad.

If it came in RED, I would already own one.

Thanks FSJ Guy I was thinking something more like the gauge overlay that ZM has but for the newer dash, something I can shove some Autometer's in

ZM has a conversion for the 86-91 dash. At least they did at one point.

Check out my gear ratio calculator

If you can't fix it with a hammer or duct tape you have an electrical problem.

A conversion to what? Standard gauges? I'm not at all interested in digital.

I emailed Zack and he confirmed they have this conversion. The gauge "pods" are $55 without gauges. The indicators I presume are included if you buy the pods without gauges but I didn't ask for sure
High beams, low fuel, turn signals, brakes

Here is the exact email from Zack

"Yes, we do. Here are a couple of pictures with gauges installed. Any of the Autometer Street Series of gauges will work (or any speedo that is 3 1/8") We can build you a dash with the gauges, fully wired with instructions to install it in your Jeep. Go to autometer.com and pick a couple of gauge styles that you like and I can give you some prices."
