I'm expecting a plethora of Scotch Locks.:fan:
When I was fixing the trailer wiring on my truck i pulled about a dozen scotch locks off of 4 wires... all within a 1ft length... seemed like when the wire broke loose the po added a new scotch lock next to the old one. Thankfully that was the only spot they touched.

You guys are lucky...I always get the ones with a bunch of wires just loosely taped together...most of which go to nothing at all, yet are cleverly hidden inside a bundle of other wires, making it exceptionally difficult to track down where they go, lol.

But of course! Why would someone leave a mess out in the open, where's the fun in a treasure hunt with an obvious end? :frustrate

I absolutely hate fixing wiring!

Eh, not that big of a deal to me. Low voltage wiring is part of my career, and dealing with a couple dozen relatively large gauge wires is a heck of a lot easier than sorting through a few hundred 24 gauge wires that all appear to be the same color because our purchasing department cheaped out again, lol.

Though I usually find it far easier just to rip out _all_ of the old stuff, and start fresh again..which, realistically, I SHOULD be doing on this truck too, but I already have 3 other major project vehicles I'm trying to get finished, and don't really want to start in on a 4th, lol.

You may want to try Pacific Supply.com. They make engine looms for the 7.3 IDI and have the capability to make a new harness for the engine compartment. Great service, great people.

Do you mean http://pacsupplyco.com/ ? pacific supply.com relayed to some building supply company, lol. Closest thing I found on pacsupply though was the international4700 parts page, and they only listed glow plug harneses...
