74 is different from a 78

and there are all sorts of variations in-between .........fyi

contact @Coolerman

he should have that sub harness section for your specific modle year and application you need

Building a rear harness is vey easy to do. You can buy the correct color stripe wire from @Coolerman and all the connectors from @ToyotaMatt and @Coolerman. Here is one I built for my 1976 FJ40.

The fifth wire ground is an essential modification for rear tail lights. Do you have the old harness from your 78? Is it a stock USA spec truck?

@restoredFJ40 I made a video of a rear harness that should help you with your project.

Wow guys, thanks for all of the information! Yes my cruiser is US spec. 1978 FJ40. I do not have the original harness, hence the wanted ad. I Amy be in touch to build one or do my self with this information.
I have ( new) older plug tail lights, but have no problem using the newer style if need be.
Thanks again
