Thanks for the warm welcome
This weekend I hit up the junk yard (Mega U-pull it) bought a power steering line, new dash basel, and gage cluster for 30 bucks. I installed everything on Sunday, now i have to sort out the electrical wires cuz it looked like a spaghetti bowl under the dash

I think hacking up wiring harnesses was a fad. Seems like these old trucks and jeep cj's always have butchered wiring under the dash. Finding one with unmolested harnesses is rare.

Every Mopar I ever bought was a rats nest. I've been lucky with the Chevy trucks, my 74 was the only one I bought that was all jacked up.
