Engine Wiring Harness Interchange

OK. Trying to find an engine wiring harness for 1984 Ranger. A yard in Colorado has a recently added 84 Bronco II which they say has the 2.8, 5speed, 4x4 as does my Ranger. The fellow in Colorado says that most people get the VIN of the donor and have a Ford dealer compare to the VIN of the recipient to determine compatibility.

My Ford dealer says he can't go back far enough.

Green Sales couldn't definitively help either.

Can anyone help or point me to a source?

84 Bronco II VIN: 1FMCU14SXEUC46097

84 Ranger VIN: 1FTBR11S7EUC03066

Help, please. Thanks

Can you find a tag on the harness with the part number?

No chance on part no. Just had a yard respond to automated search. Says he has a grade A wiring harness off the exact same vehicle. $175 delivered. 90-day warranty. I'm taking a chance on it.

Thanks for the response.

$175.... I'd fix mine. Really the most expencive things are connectors. they usually made by Deutch, sometimes AMP so you can easily purchase contacts and rewire your engine.

Old EEC-IV ore earlier EEC-III are very simple.

What damage got your wiring?
