    M998 Hmmwv tach installed.

    I don't think it will work right. That sensor will give you cam speed which is half that of the crank.

    M998 Hmmwv tach installed.

    FWIW I've seen a tach that looks very much like these in the M35A3's. the one in the hmmwv also didn't have a provision for back lighting.

    M998 Hmmwv tach installed.

    you got a deal but your is very different from mine. mine had a single connector that came out the back and then branched out in the truck and went to the alternator, fuel level gauge and ground.

    M998 Hmmwv tach installed.

    I dont think it is the same. but for the hmmwv I simply found a 24V switched source (The mil used the fuel gauge for it.) Then you use the IGN trigger thats on the generator. you run it in line with the IGN wire on the generator.

    M998 Hmmwv tach installed.

    for those that dont know tachs dont normally come in the hmmwv and they are hard as heck to find and very pricey when you do. I was fortunate enough to find one on epay for a hefty price. Install wasn't bad. drill 4 hole in the front windshield frame. Install new center dash cover and wire...
