Re: Has anyone done a low buck wiring harness swap?

I was going to build my own but after looking at the cost for wire, fuse panel, etc. the aggrevation factor or dealing with potential crosswiring and future diagnostics trumped the $20 or so I would have saved. I got an EZ21 kit because I plan on running extra circuits for a winch, aux. lights, trailer brakes, etc. I've called the company and the owner answers the phone. He answered my questions and told me when I got closer to wiring some of the different circuits to call and he would help me with fuse size and location. I would not strip a 20 year old harness out and reuse it. Heat and time are wires enemies, why burn a 20K truck to the ground to save a hundred bucks?
