G’day Ian Being a diesel there are no aftermarket harnesses out there and it’s too old for GM to support. They haven’t made these engines for 20 years now. My only option would be to buy second hand and then there are no guarantees that it would be any better than what I already have. Anyway…it’s all been pushed back due to delays with getting other parts so I am taking my time cleaning up the front of the chassis and will have to get back into the Patrol. It desperately needs a new injection pump and I’ll probably rip the head off just to make sure the head gasket and a new set of bolts will stand up to the 20+ psi I plan on pushing through it. On top of that I have a complete suspension lift kit to install in it and get some bigger rubber underneath her. Cirtainly not short of a project. As always…thanks so much for watching me bumble my way through and hopefully I’ll get the old girl running in this lifetime. Cheers Harry
Harry, I have watched all of your posts, I admire your perseverance. Keep up the good work.
Harry, I admire your perseverance, would it have been viable to buy a factory wiring harness or is the truck to old to have a harness in stock.
G’day Ian

Sorry, should have asked, would it be viable to look at buying a genuine factory wire harness.
