    They're not. The flexible circuit board is different.

    ok so it looks like that answer is a no. the unused connector slot on the 01-04 appears to be what fed the info to the bulbs for the shift indicator

    95-97 trucks had a cable driven speedo no electronics just a cable that stuck into the t case and cluster that worked

    I wonder how the 70 series does it still an old school cable or electronics?

    The j shift in my tacoma shifted a lot better than the t case in my 4 runner (loose as hell) but wasnt as crisp as the one in my buddies 4 runner

    that thing takes the right amount of effort is really notchy and once enguaged is there theres no moving it around

    Thinking about it sounds like what some people describe after switching to redline mt-90

    They have two spring loaded detents, and a shifter seat. I wouldn't really want to replace the springs for the detents cause you have to split the case. But the shifter seat is pretty easy. My cases have always been notchy
