Please elaborate on why I would want to do these? Maybe im just tired, but I could use a little help understanding why I would want to use the factory Dakota brain over the jeep one? The signal starts out the same... Hmmm... stopped to think... I am beginning to understand where you are cmoing from, but I think I would be able to use the signals. If all else fails, I'll just do aftermarket tach, speedo, etc... gives me a chance to fabricate a full-custom dash which would be fun. ERRRRR i'm torn because I want to do this, but I do not have another vehicle to drive this winter, and no real place to do it either. I think it would be too much for me to handle... But If I find out that I will be able to rape the corpse of this ZJ, I think I will steal the engine, tranny, modules, and other workings of the engine in case I choose to do it. At this point it may all be a pipe-dream... I don't even know for sure if I will be able to strip out the guts of the ZJ yet... still waiting on the OK from the yard it's sitting in.
