Dakota Digital VHX-61F-PU-S-R Instrument Cluster for 1961-1966 Ford Pickups

Revitalize your classic Ford pickup with the Dakota Digital VHX-61F-PU-S-R instrument cluster, designed specifically for 1961 to 1966 Ford pickups. This all-in-one system seamlessly integrates into your stock gauge bezel, offering a sleek upgrade that enhances functionality without sacrificing style. Please note, this unit is not compatible with Bronco or Custom Cab models from '65 to '66.

Why Upgrade?

The original round speedometer in these Ford trucks may look charming, but it lacks the critical information that modern drivers need. The VHX-61F-PU-S-R replaces that old gauge with a comprehensive display that includes six analog readings and two customizable LCD message centers. Whether you’re cruising down the highway or hitting the trails, this cluster keeps you informed at a glance.

Display and Performance

With fully lit needles and backlit faces, the VHX series stands out in any lighting condition.

This cluster also includes performance meters, such as:

  • 0-60 MPH Timer
  • 1/4 Mile Time and End Speed
  • High Speed and RPM Recall

Lighting and Indicators

Each gauge is illuminated by a series of LEDs, ensuring that you can read your vital stats at a quick glance. The cluster includes essential indicators for:

Fitment and Style
