85 and 88 are two different body styles.

that would be correct if it is a C/K Model but from 88 to 91 there was also the R/V models so he could have one of them.

Use the old wiring harness, less problems that way

Re: 85 to 88 cab

can i just use my old engine harness? cause my cab harness is shot to hell. also can i just take the fuse block apart to seperat the frame harness or do i have to cut and splice all the wires?

Re: 85 to 88 cab

If you're taking the fuse block apart best to get a factory wiring schematic, the 2 fuse blocks are not exactly the same
