Taillight harness.

Does anyone know if the wiring harness going from the cab to the tail lights and the "bridge" harness for the taillights on an 85 F150 are still available? if so are they a pricy proposition. I can wire it in with premium trailer wire for about $60. but for a few more would install the real deal.

Nobody seems to sell new factory wiring for these trucks yet. But when they do, they will have a lot of customers.

I just redid my rear harness. Mine had eight scotch locks bitten into it. The long harness from the cab to the rear would be a pain. Are you sure thats the problem? I had to check everything with a mutlimeter until i found that my turn signal switch was the problem.

It is all dried up 25 yearold wiring. That has been hacked and spliced 30 or so times. That is why I was currious.
