910-That stuff's all fly-by-wire. Meaning, there is a sender or sensor for EVERYTHING including the speedo (no old-fashioned cable). If you or an acquaintence are skilled in electronics, you could probably pull it off. You would want to make sure to get ALL of the sensors from the donor car. However, are they going to be compatible with your truck and all of its different mechanical systems? You might just be wiser to buy a premade custom digital cluster from Dakota Digital or one of the other aftermarket suppliers. They are already set up to work with an "old tech" truck and its "old tech" driveline. Best of luck on your project.
