Finishing up my build and wanted to post some wiring pictures which I could not find much info on searching here. I know not many people are still working with this kit but here you go.
These are the main ECU harness connectors in the AC Manuel labeled with the connector number.
Hope this helps anyone like myself who pushed off wiring to the end.

Thanks, Really looking forward to driving it. finished welding up the up the exhaust this weekend. Few little things to complete and it is ready to test drive.

Anyone experience an oscillating frequency when in drive or reverse? I'm thinking the motor mounts or trans mounts are going bad and with the warming weather are starting to transfer more of the energy from the drivetrain to the body of the truck. I only feel it when I'm coming to a stop and then once I'm fully stopped it gets more pronounced.

I have been shaking lately, crawled under and found the nuts had come loose though. Tightened them up, no more shakes.

Looks like you can order from the site - nothing about being closed etc

Well, I hope that's true but I'm not holding my breath just yet. The site took an order from me months ago with no confirmation or anything else. But, I'm happy to hope.
