Excellent. I shall see if I can conjure up another set and maybe see what other ones aren’t produced to get reproduced.

So....curiosity got the best of me and I decided to peruse my NOS wiring harnesses I got a while back and to my surprise I had a harness that had the connector I was after. Actually two harnesses lol. Now I don't want to call the search off just because I found one, I don't want to leave a harness without a connector. So woohoo! And the terminals came in today so I plan to hopefully have the headlamp harness functional again. @Dzimm. How possible would it be to replicate these connectors?

Eh that’s about the right price. It’s under list by about $5. So they are trying to make some money back from their purchase.

Nope! Disregard what I said. There’s a special jumper harness out there that plugs the new into the old. 4728877

Hopefully. I think the new motors from Chrysler would’ve included a paper in regards to the update but that info is probably lost. Unless I can find it in the service library.

There’s a TSB out there on the wiper motors. Chrysler during the HO years made a new motor and plug for it and continued to make the Renix ones until they passed the Renix ones out of service with the HO ones. So they said to basically splice the new plug on.

Holy crap!! That’s some sexy full garnet interior action right there. Just look at the dash bezel! That’s a hard find right there.

“It’s not an MJ shell!” Lol only because Pete said the obsessed guys will know.

I may or may not have one of these bezels as a spare.

Not a clue. I don’t see many older GM vehicles to explore and find out what they have cause they usually end up scrapped or down in Mexico. Also go to sleep.

Lol close but 87 is that weird middle year where they were changing over stuff to the newer 88 standards.

I will get a pic this evening. It’s over on the passenger side tucked behind the battery. But I imagine by the 87 model year the connector for the headlamps changed.

Weather pack should be just as good if not better than the metri-packs. Now the lock solenoid is its own connector and I’m not sure if that connector is around or not but it might be. I haven’t had to look for that one specifically.

For having down just power locks, all I can say is, get a enough length of wire, set up the system outside of the truck to ensure you have it all wired right and I recommend OEM connectors but you can choose which ever you like.

I saw a guy use some sort of powder once on a ground nest and it made them spaz out from the poison. He then later at night went and drowned the nest and put a screen over the hole just so that way none came out.

Theres a 7.5 amp fuse on the block that believe it or not runs the power from the switch on the trans to the reverse lamps. I am pretty sure that fuse is in the "Trans" slot. Also the switch on the trans could be bad or stuck.

Sounds like you might want to do some ground cleaning/upgrades. Also that fuse does control the lamps as well. And if you havent, the front headlamp harness upgrade is a must.

Sounds good! I looked in the digital catalog and got nothing.

Do the rims or caps have a part number anywhere?

Hmmmm I can do some digging on the older Chrysler cars and see. Very interesting choice by them.

Gotta see that engine bay but the valve cover is always one for me, the radiator if original is another. AC stuff is a must for some. I know @carolinajeepman is after AC stuff to get his done.

Of course! I love me some 2.5L parts.

Still absolutely pretty cool. Course I guess you could just add in your own screen to the grill these days. But it is better to have an OEM part.
