F600 gauge wiring question
I did a search but didn't find exactly the info I was looking for. Can I run my F600 gauges using my stock wire harness if it originally had gauges instead of idiot lights? Does it need to be modified at all?

Re: F600 gauge wiring question
The F600 gauge harness will plug directly in to the 67-69 harness and should work with no modification. If you are trying to plug in to a 70-72 harness, then you just need to wire up an older plug so it will plug in. But otherwise, the F600 gauges will work just fine.
I am posting that off the top of my head. The plug may not have changed until 71... but you will know when you look at it.

Re: F600 gauge wiring question
If the F600 gauges are pre 70 and your truck is pre 70 the plug in is the same except the F600 wiring harness does not have the blinker leads. If you have
a sprare F100 wiring harness you can pull the leads out it and install in the F600 harness. Realy easy makes the gauges plug and play with original harness. I have posts out there with pictures.

Re: F600 gauge wiring question
Thanks guys! I knew the plugs were the same, but my truck isn't running yet for me to try out my gauges.
