We are looking at pickup up a 1987 Wrangler, automatic, 6 cyl and it will need a wiring harness. (Burnt / fire under hood)
Does anyone know how many "other" years or harnesses would work?
Here is my assumptions, please correct / let me know what you know about these!!
Engine will be the 258 (4.2L) inline six cylinder, in this case it supposedly has been bored out already / rebuilt.
Will the 85 and old CJ wiring harnesses work? I assume 87-89 will, I think the 90 or 91 they went to the fuel injected 4.0L.
I "assume" the 4.0L harness will not work? (Would be nice if it would / lot easier to find those on cherokees, etc.)
How many "wires" does it really need? I know the harness is about 2 inches thick coming out from the firewall....
If you have one or can give us some feedback here I would really apprec it! (This will be for my wife's sister in law / summer fun kinda rig)
