Replacement Wire Harness

Replacement Wire Harness

Where do I find fenders for my old Dodge truck? And how bad is a Wiring Harness replacement?

I have a step side 1975 Dodge 100, and I been to junkyards and looked online, I can't find step side fenders anywhere. Also I was wondering how hard a wiring harness from E-Z wire or Summit is to put in it?

I'd call around to the custom shops or body shops etc for that fender but you may end up having to have one made up for you too.
My speciality is wiring and I can tell that it's a big job if you're talking about the main harness on that vehicle.I'd try going back to the do it yourself auto wreckers and pulling a couple of those harness's off bec you gain so much by doing the hands on job.
I'am not sure just why you want to change this harness maybe it's bec of faulty wiring or a accident that crimped the harness but keep in mind that Dodge uses quite a bit of thin gauged wires and on a vehicle that old it have many bad grounds and wiring that is internally rotted out or corroded.
Basically to pull a harness off if it's the main harness will take 2 to 3 hrs or so but to install it will take a good part of a day unless it's easy access etc.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way if you do know how to solder and replace wiring I'd highly recommend taking an harness off a vehicle exactly like yours and buying the right gauged wires then rebuilding the harness before changing it with your old harness , unless you're going to buy a new harness that is about 1,500 to 2,000 bucks.
What I do is take the coating or sleeves etc off the harness and then tracing the wires one ata time cutting one end of it then the other , peeling the wires then use a ohms meter to be sure it's the right way , then peel the wire you wish to change and slide the heat shrink tubes over it then peel a new wire same gauge and add it onto the old wires , then solder the connections , check both soldered ends with ohms meter to be sure it's a good solid connection and then slide the tube over the wire once it cooled down a bit and shrink the tube by heating it up, plus check where the wires connect to on the harness like a plug in pin connector's pins to be sure its all connecting properly.This method may take some time over 8 hrs or even a few days but at least then you know that the wiring will be basically new.
