Limited Instrument Cluster Swap

[Ardeedunn]

I know that is is a common upgrade to swap the Laramie style Cluster into the Tradesman and base Big horns. But, has anyone swapped a Digital Limited Cluster into another Ram yet? Can it be done the same way?

Not plugging infotainment in anyway, but this video shows you how

Thanks, but there was no link shown

hmmm not sure why ...

Thanks, got it. But the Cluster I'm referring to was the latest cluster on the Limiteds that is completely different than the others. It appears blank until powers up.

You are the all digital cluster. No one has been able to swap that in yet but it is being worked on as an option.

Will definitely need UC5 and different firmware I bet also.

Probably not new firmware, but yes, UC5 because I think that's where you do the customization.

It's differnt firmware.
2023s and 2022s use differnet firmware even though they are both UC5.

Someone has put the 2023 firmware on a 2022 and it worked though, but I don't think 2019-2021s (UC4) would work without swapping to UC5 first.

Just noting it as another likely step.

I know it's different firmware. I have a lot of experience with that. But the signals are still the same.

The truck I wanted to swap this into is a 2022 Ram 1500 Bighorn. What are the chances that this new cluster would work?

Dont know if you’re done this already but I recently did the swap in my 2024 3500 Laramie and it was plug and play, other than a cable that I had to use for the installation in order to get my navigation to show up on the cluster.

Would you mind posting the cable? Any hints as to where to source a limited/longhorn cluster?
