How difficult was it to put in the new dash cluster? My 97 doesn't have a tach, but is there a connection for it (and everything that the newer cluster would have or would some of the gauges have nothing connected) if I put in a new one?

I haven't done it yet, but it's not horribly bad... If you look in the How-to section you'll find a couple different ones that people have taken out and swapped.

Ok, I might think about it since I'd like a tach with at 5 speed, plus I just think the stock one is boring.

Also, is there a place that lists all the compatible parts from other cars/trucks; I know the 93-97 have almost all compatible parts, I think some 98-00 parts are shareable (are the taillights?), but someone posted about 94 van drum brakes fitting in the back and I wouldn't ever have known. Is there any sort of list like this?

I like all my mods pretty equally. I'd have to say that my favorite mod will be either when I swap all of my springs and gain some lift, my 31's I'll eventually get, or my 4.0/M5OD/4x4 swap that's waaayyy down the road.
