new AAW wire harness does not fit new CPP steering column

the harness coming out of my new CPP steering column ONLY APPEARS to be able to fit with my brand new AAW classic update harness. the general shape is the same, the wire colors match up, but the two black plastic connectors will NOT fit together. WHY? must I trim the edge of one of the black plastic ends away to make a connection?

Why don't use re-use the original connectors that came with the truck? De-pin them and put the new wires in.

I've never done anything like that and I was hoping it would be plug and play. Especially considering it's made for this truck

Cheap parts made over sea's! I bought a new turn signal switch for my 67 Ramp truck tilt wheel I installed. I have had issues ever since. I had no horn after getting everything back together. I traced it out and found the ground wire in the new connector had come loose. Still in the black plastic but not hooked to the other side. Fixed that.
Coming down to the beach for the RTTS car show I lost my left brake light but turn signal worked. Sure enough the wire was like the horn came loose but not out. I've reinstalled it 2 times so far.
I'm really thinking about de pinning it and add spade connectors.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
