Holy Cows man that was a friggin' steal!

 

Speedo water temp, work even if the motor is off, as long add the key is in the run poison iirc. I bet it won't be to hard to make the tach work either

 

I would love to have a tach, and im definitely going to have an A pillar cluster for boost, pyrometer, and engine oil temp, possibly a trans temp. Just anything but those ridiculous 6'' tachs the ricers strap on their dashboards

 

does your stock cluster not have a tach? or does it have a giant gas guage next to the speedo

 

it has a tach, but i assume it goes through the pcm, if not, hell half of my swaps worries are over.

 

I believe either on 4btswaps.com or competitiondiesel.com there is a thread on making the tach work when making the swap. Im not sure what all it applies to but its worth the search. Also, im not sure how much power your wanting out of a 4BT, but if your wanting more than 200 HP from it, check with competitiondiesel.com. The guys at 4btswaps.com are very knowledgable with the swaps, but are scared to death to push any power from it, although its been proven many times to work. Any more than 200 and your gonna "grenade" it is their theory. But 400 HP and ~25 mpg would be freaking SWEET!

 

There was one website (the one im ordering the bellhousing from) that the guy either twin or sequential turboed a 4bd1t and made 500hp to the wheels, I think the site is izuzuswappers.com or something like that.

 

well it shouldnt be to hard to trick the pcm into thinking that its getting the right signals, and therefore sending the right signals lol. if that doesnt work im sure there is a wire set that goes to the back of the guage cluster that can be splice into

 

By the way fellas, PMed afew people with no solution, but the dana axles are just waiting on rims, and can someone refer me to someone who knows what offset I would need for 37/12.5/16.5s?

Dont wanna replace the wheel bearing in my 44 rather swap the whole axle

 

Backspacing is what you are concerned with, offset isn't nearly so critical. Basically, the stock wheels are like 7.5 inch, with 4-5 inch backspacing. Try and keep wheel geometry close to stock when choosing wheels, and you should be golden.
