wanted cab wiring
looking for cab wiring for a 1973 f250 highboy. i think all the ford trucks that year would be about the same. does not have to be perfect just usable. mine is burned.

You can also find a donor truck in a scrapyard and pull the wiring. Make sure it matches your equipment, gages, AC, etc, etc. You may have to pull two and combine the good parts from each that have not been butchered by others into one harness.

I should have mentioned.
Having a 73 you are limited for a direct replacement from a 73 or 74 as in 75 they changed things A LOT.
There are also differences in Guage clusters vs Warning lights clusters.

You are going to have to be very careful before pulling a wiring harness from an old truck unless you take the Instrument cluster as well.

The key to the 75 differences thing is the consecutive build number
