Original style Ford 2-3-4 pin connectors available new?

Do any electrical suppliers sell these types of connectors new? Wish I could find them bare as a kit so I could crimp my own preferable gauge wire into them at the bullet but I'd settle for new connectors like trailer connectors come.

Midlife, do you sell these new?

I want to rewire my underhood but hide the wiring so I'd like to take a different route and the stock harness won't reach.
Thanks Jon

if mid doesn't have anything, american autowire sells the GM new style weatherproof connectors. i think i have a few of my other vendors that sell them too.
 
I have not found anyone selling new the multipin connectors in the weird configuration that Ford used. www.delcity.net has 1, 2, 3, and 4 pin flat connectors commonly used for trailers, and those come in handy for some of the simpler Ford connectors. I have multiple used connectors if you need them.
 
Thanks Steve and Mid, looks like Waytek makes some that may work:

If these don't work I'll contact you and look through Steve's catalogs, I may just cut my old ones off and salvage them.
Found them in the connectors section here, you have to do 'next page' but it doesn't tell you how many items there are total or how many pages so I just kept looking:

I know the wires coming right out won't be the same color but I can cut/splice them close and cover with a black heatshrink up to the rubbber plug to avoid wire color changes I guess.

I am planning on running 14ga. in place of the stock 18-22 ga. wires to the front (headlights, driving lights both with relays, alt., etc.) and other than the thicker ga. wires for the alt. would 14ga. be ok for lighting, etc. w/o causing me any resistance or other issues I'm not considering?
Thanks, Jon
 
Just ordered 5 male and 5 female 2 pin connectors.

I needed one to make a disconnect on the neutral start wire on the T5.

We should think about doing a group buy on some of that braided sleeving.
 
Yeah Randy, I looked at their braided sleeving and it looks like the min. is 50ft., I want to be sure to get the split stuff like Rick gave me so I can run lines in/out anywhere in the run and add lines later easily. Looks like it's ~$1/ft. and 50ft. will be way more than any of us need, I'll have to ask Rick how much he ended up using of 1/2" and 3/4" and what it cost from where he got it originally.
Did you get thoses 2pins from Waytek?

Summit sells a Taylor kit with most everything I needed for a clean install. Much better quality than the parts house tubing.

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TAY-38000/

Lots of other options available too -

Thanks for the links Andre, I was searching summit to see if they sold the nylon braided split stuff we're looking for and couldn't find it. Really interested in using this type vs. the plastic convoluted version, just my preference as the nylon can be flattened where needed and make tighter bends.
Thanks, Jon
 
Ah, misunderstood what you were looking for-

Waytek's pretty good, but the minimums can get you. OTOH, I ordered some double wall shrink, thinking the min. would be a lifetime supply. One year later, and it's half gone.

Yes. The braided stuff they sell is split.

That's awesome! I have been cutting up old harnesses to get these used, which is annoying to do. I have almost all new wiring in my car but needed these fittings to connect some items such as speakers (door speakers) and some other misc wiring projects. I'd much rather have all new wiring.

Looking at more options here...

Are the single bullet connectors in original Ford wiring .180 or .156?

http://order.waytekwire.com/products2/M50/320/150/300/1/Female%20Insulated%20Nylon/Bullet%20Connectors/Terminals%20And%20Connectors/

Also, does anybody have any need for bullet connectors? Looks like minimum order is 100 and I only need 3 or 4. Maybe I should check out the local hardware store for those in particular.

Newark electrical or digi-key are better to deal with than Waytek. No minimums or other BS for most stuff. They also have bullet connectors, cheap too.

Most are 0.180, but some are 0.156.
