Wiring CTD swap? RC

Postby wonderbread » Sat May 07, 2011 7:31 am

Alright this might be a dumb question, but I have a 1989 2wd CTD wiring harness plugged into a 1987 RC 4wd. I have power to the diesel pump, windows, radio, seat belt warning, & thats about it. Does anybody know what I need to do to make it all happen? Can you just move some pins? Or do you have to swap the dash wiring out as well ? Thanks in advance

I haven't actually checked, but the wiring should be close as the years are close. I'd check the fusable links and make sure they are all good to start with. Maybe buy a service manual so you can see what wires go where and you can trace them out.

Thanks Ellis- Now to see if I am smart enough to take that on? @ this point I have no choice , I'm knee deep in this swap & have to have some results. If you ever make it this way, I'll buy the beers! Thanks again & I'll keep posting on the swap.
