nothing to it. just remove the cruise unit on the driver side fender, and let the wires hang.
or leave it there and forget it. if all the wires are not hooked up and everything adjusted properly, it will not work anyway.

Yep, the cruise just works the throttle, not hooked up to the transmission at all.

Thanks.
pulled the whole unit for access to transmission harness connectors below it.
will not put it back in and add it to the rest of the “stuff” in the parts pile!-)
again, thank you both for the info.

now you have room to mount a set of train horns on the inner fender where the cruise was.

Yes! It's the tribal call of the IDI Brethren! One blast = glow plugs aren't working, two blasts = air intrusion, three blasts = failed starter and/or batteries, four long blasts followed by 9mm discharge = E4DOA.
