Yes, to adjust the pointer, you dont need to pull the dash..just the lower steering column shroud...

I REALIZE YOU GUYS CANT KEEP ANSERWING ME CAUSE YALL ARE BUSY, BUT I KEEP ASKING THE QUESTIONS FOR MY HUBBY, HE REALLY IS A GOOD MECHANIC, JUST SOME THINGS HE CANT FIGURE OUT, WE JUST BOUGHT THIS TRUCK AND THE ORANGE NEEDLE DOES NOT LINE UP WITH THE CORRECT LETTER, IN THE COLUMN, DO YOU NO WHAT I MEAN? SO HE SAYS HE NEEDS TO GET THE PART OFF AROUND THE LIGHT SWITCH TO GET TO IT WHICH IS NOT THE DASH I JUST TYPE WHAT HE SAYS, SO PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF I AM TAKING UP TO MUCH OF YOUR TIME BUT HOW DO YOU GET THE SHROUD OFF, IS THAT THE PART AROUND THE LIGHT SWITCH?, HE SAID HE IS GONNA BUY A BOOK, TOMMAROW ANYWAYS, THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO.

It is just the removal of the plastic cover around the steering column, 2 or 3 philps screws, then turn the thumbwheel to adjust the needle. Very siimple, you could do it for him! The screws are accessed from the bottom of the shroud.
