Good luck with the wiring harness. Installing a new harnesssure sounds intimidating, but I bet you do a great job with it. :thup:

Been considering that myself but have been a little intimidated by it. Like to hear how it was for you. Keeps us posted!

Seen more than a couple of guys here give up and send the trucks to pasture when attempting this.
Words of wisdom when wiring I was taught by an A/C instructor over 20 years ago...
Finish the wiring first that you are certain of / that make sense. Do the harder (or unknown) last. This gets a lot of wires out of your way so you might have a better idea "what goes where". And don't be afraid to ask, there's a lot of smart guys here as well as EZ Wiring themselves should have a tech department for questions. :thup:

well..the first part of the rewireing is done. The hardest part was getting the old wires out of the way..took over an hour.
The front harness ..under hood..should be done next weekend..I hope! So far..no MAJOR problems...
Today..Monday..will run wires to regulator, alt,etc on the right side of truck..will try this afternoon to put harness in the cab and hook up..

Did you try calling the folks at EZ-Wiring, (to see if they have a tech service line for questions)?
It would be hard to believe in this day and age they would not? :(

Yep, here it is! Don't be afraid to use the tech service line either. That's what those guys get paid for.
