Tail light harness connector

Im looking for just the connector for the taillights. Im taking the bed off tonight, and it may be off for a couple weeks. I would like to still drive the truck while its off, but im not really fond of the idea of just splicing some wires into my existing harness. If I could find just the 4 way connector and just wire it up to that, id be happier. Is there an outlet or does anybody know an A/M place to get one? Id appreciate the help fellas
Thanks
-Andrew

Re: Tail light harness connector

I think Reese makes a "T" plug-in that goes between the frame harness & tail lamp harness for trailer hookup. Just cut off the flat four connector & make yourself a lightbar.

Re: Tail light harness connector

Wouldn't four standard male slide-on connectors work for a short term project?

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: Tail light harness connector

Not to sound like an idiot, but I guess I haven't had enough experience with em, cause Im lost. Does it look like our connector, or will I have to get some connectors and just make it?
