    74 FJ40 Restoration

    Hey guys. I've been tinkering around with my cruiser, mainly wiring for the most part (not so EZ wire). I'm going to swap out my stock steering column for a GM column. One reason is for compatibility with my harness and the other is for comfort in the driver seat that the PO put in. I'm not...

    Another question for you due to my wiring experience being limited to none. My harness has a LEFT TAIL PARK wire, and a LEFT FRONT PARK wire. How do I account for both off of the one connector (being the bottom left on the picture)?

    Here is an addition to the thread. If I remember this was one of the missing years that was added later into the thread. My housings were shot but here is a look at the cluster.

    Thanks for the speedy reply. Much appreciated. I've seen others with 5 prongs with one going to gauge lights. That's where I was tying it into this thread to see if I was mistaken on the contacts and whether or not one went to the gauge lights.
