I'm not sure what you mean by nothing newer, foxes didn't have a 140mph speedo until 1990, in '89 they were still 85mph.

<<<< This one up for bid>>>>>>

Why did your cluster go "haywire" on you?

I believe you can stick/swap a later model cluster in. You would need to swap around a couple of wires from the harness. :scratch:


edit: Previous post<<<<< with some links to info on speedos and cluster swaps. Hope it helps.

Actually in 1989, they used up the rest of their production 85mph speedos, and when those ran out, put in the 140 mph speedometers midway through the model year. I know because I used to own one

:scratch: Up here in Canada my 89 has a 200km/h speedo (125mph). A 91 (and probably a 90 i'd assume) goes to 220km/h (about 140mph). I don't think we ever got the 80mph one.
