Re: 85 to 88 cab
85 and 88 are two different body styles.

Re: 85 to 88 cab
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
