Big Bronco wiring harness

[69LUBR]

I have a mid 90's Bronco wiring harness and was wondering if anyone has used this for the EB? If so, how complex and or is there a link or how to thread? Thanks..

You would be the first as far as I know. Wouldn't be much different then trying to use any onther incorrect harness. The basics are about the right place, but nothing would actually line up and fit correctly. You would have lots of extra wires and maybe lacking a few. Then you get the joy of snapping the 20 year old plastic tabs off on all the connectors and later finding the harness shook off because the lock tab is now broken.

You would be a lot better off starting with a basic generic street rod harness if you don't want to try a Bronco specific harness.

unless you were planning on running EFI, guages and all the other electronic stuff out of that same truck I dont think the 90's harness would be worth the effort. About the only person I know that would consider/do this is Steve83 I'm sure he might pop in with some wiring diagrams for you if you really want to do it.

Thanks for the info. I have the motor from the same Bronco going into my build. Wasn't sure if it would be worth it.

Still might not be worth it as the intake setup on the truck engines are way to tall to fit under a bronco hood. Most people swap to the car intakes along with wiring and computer.

Thanks again, I have the Exploder upper and the lightning lower. I'll look aqt other options for the chassis harness.

Yeah in that case you are better off with the aftermarket harness. As trying to convert what you have would be a PITA.

Frank's truck is VERY reliable, and easy-to-work-on; he drives it every day. Look thru the albums linked to this thumbnail:

is it a 5.8? One thing would be if you wanted mass air or SD too.
