HZJ73- trailer wiring

[peteinjp]

I have an olde military trailer that I haul around with my BJ46 and want to use it with my 1990 70 as well. the Bj has a trailer wiring integrated into the wiring harness terminating in a single connector. Does the 70 have this as well and if not what is everyone doing to add trailer connectors?

Best!

Fellow M416 owner here. Converted the trailer to 12V 15 years before buying two 24V vehicles. If you're also a 24V rig trying to light a 12V trailer check out this classic logic >>

I've done something similar twice. Works a champ. Little info in my '97 HZJ73 "build" thread. >

Also Sundowner has a good informative thread here >

Also-also as Coldtaco said there is metric sh1t tons of info on the forum that a search will turn up.

If you're a 24v rig trying to light a 12v trailer, just put multivolt LED combination lights on the trailer. Then you can run them on any voltage, and they'll last longer than regular globes too.

Thanks guys- 24v truck and trailer so no issues there. I was just hoping that there would be a connector specifically for adding a trailer- as there is on my BJ46. I just got the truck back and I'll have a look at it tomorrow but thinking I'll need to make an adapter to split off the existing rear wiring.
