Cruise Control

I am finishing the cab removal on my donor truck, and would like to keep the cruise. Is there a control unit for it, or is that all in the servo unit? I just want to get everything I need before I toss the cab.

Not sure what you mean by servo, but there's the module as I would call it to the right of the master cylinder that the cable runs through and the supporting electronics should be it.

There's three pieces: the buttons on the steering column, a computer box under the dash, and the servo unit itself.

It should be a little black box, with two connectors plugged into it, under the center dash area. It's held in place with two screws through it at the sides.

I have been looking for what might be wrong with my cruise control, so I will check these areas

I'm sure you know better than me, but that sounds an awful lot like the delay wiper box - but then again, maybe it is a whole lot like it.

The wiper delay box is close to the wiper switch, from what I remember its mounted near the e-brake pedal bracket.

If you follow the vacuum hose back from the brake pedal switch, the harness for the cruise box should be taped onto it right near the box. It's down low in the dash kinda behind the ashtray.
