Cluster housing for 74 c10

[Burkee1483]

I keep finding bits n pieces. I’m looking for a replacement cluster housing for my 74! Today mine pretty much crumbled in my hands. I’m gonna be looking thru used ones this weekend but was curious where a new one could be bought!? CJ pony parts has 81-up but nothing for the early 73-74.

They even offer new printed circuit to rebuild said cluster and I’ve already got a new lenses. I just need the mounting portion!

Also if I’m being a dummy and I can use a later model gauge housing please let me know lol

LMC has the 73 - 74 cluster.
If you want to add gauges or tach you can use later cluster backing plates.
I use the 78 - 80 cluster and printed circuit cause I added a tach in my 74 C20.

Echoing what others have said, now's the time to add the factory tach while you're in there. You already have to buy a new cluster back and it's the same cost with or without tach. Ought to get a printed circuit too since the back was so old it crumbled, so you're like 1/3 of the way there already as far as parts. Just need the repro gauges and the wiring harness from LMC or one of the other vendors who sell these and you're in business.
