Why did you need to swap the Harness that has the Body Wiring...? (Lights and all) Mine appear to be the the same between same year, one being 02 Ram 2500 V10 and the other an 02 Ram 3500 Cummins.

@@jamesrobinson5801 I’m not certain. Best I can remember is that it was all one harness. It would make sense to not swap it if it’s an option. Where does it disconnect? At the fuse box I assume?

Just another guy saying thanks and should we ever meet- I owe you a beer, Big soda, milkshake, etc. I went to using an endless ratchet strap because it was better than the sideways crank tool. But when I saw this bit of genius, i knew hours of aggrivation would be gone from then on.
