I'll be calling you for a replacement cluster for my 71 soon Mark.

No. Many of them are just for parts. When I get a call, my m o is to pull one off the shelf and, if the needles on the lower gauges look like they are where they are supposed to be, I will put my speedo adapter on the cordless drill and check the speed and odometer.

If you want a fully tested unit, I think @JVZii can help.

Also a very popular one, but one that I have very few good cores for. Those start at $350

 

[kevos37]

I have this one. It's been electrically and mechanically tested. The speedometer and odometer work and all the gauges operate properly. Has a slight dent at the upper crest of the bezel.

$225 plus ship. Feel free to PM me.

I can help as well. I have several 77 clusters.

I also offer the added perk that I take cluster cores as partial/full payment if you have any extras.

This picture always makes me sad. Each cluster is an Fj40 that has gone to Land Cruiser heaven.

Thank you Kevin! That one looked perfect for me!
However, I found a brand new one for $260 and bit the bullet. Hopefully I don't get screwed. The seller only has OEM parts and has 100% rating on eBay.

Thank you Jack. Good to know, that is a great business move. I already got a brand new one. I'd figure it'd be best for the restoration.

I have been enjoying your videos on YouTube btw. Very helpful!

Brand new one? You sure it's not kph?

It is. But i don't mind. I live on the Mexico border. So why not?
Also @JVZii sells a pretty neat conversion sticker for it, if i ever want to change it.

Beware, the new OEM clusters that are available are not plug and play with a 77. The amp gauge is different.

A 77 has two large wires that bolt to the amp gauge. The new clusters that you can buy on eBay have the newer 50 amp gauge and require a shunt.

BTW @kevos37 your bezel I mean high beam jewel is upside down.

That means that I'm going to have to tap that dent out while I'm in there reorienting the high beam. Lol.
