Not sure where to go now a days, search Ford connector pins and blades. You need a B crimper as well. Takes a little practice to use one properly.

Look for the real deals. I mean there's a bunch a crap knock-offs on the market.

Great, yea I'd just look around and see what you can find. There is a place called clips and fasteners (.com), they carry a bunch of the Ford stuff, but I'm not sure if they carry Ford Terminals any longer. Someone should have them.

I found this site Just need to pull the connector apart and see which I need. I hate to splice wires when the connectors are there. I sure miss Olsen's Or Radio Shack back when they where a true electronics store. Well I am showing my age now.

Yea, it looks like they carry more stuff than they use to. Their wed site has been improved as well. I bookmarked that other site you found, looks like a good one!

A tip, if you don't know this already, - I have a kit for taking connectors apart but, -I never use it, it sucks. It supposedly a Ford connector kit lol. Regardless, I resort to a cheap little workforce screwdriver kit and use the smallest flat blade screwdriver in the kit to take the Ford connectors apart. It just works the best preventing damage to the connector.

Yea, I replaced /rebuilt harnesses on the 98. Built a new engine harness complete, CHT, IAT, ALT harness and all battery cabling as well lol. The truck has 346,000 miles on it and most of the wiring has deteriorated for some reason. They get frail and break inside the insulation. Old truck woes lol.

Anyway, good luck with yours.
