    The T bucket is a basic 8 circut harness with 1 accessory and it was supposto be designed along with the NTBA's help ( National T Bucket Allience ) but they made 1 big oopsie, they put in GM steering colum connectors when 99% of the time a str8 colum is used, 1 with no internal wiring. I'v heard a couple complaints about this, having to bypass the connectors.

    the 2 pictured above are both painless, just wondering if there is any significant difference between the 2 that I may be overlooking... The extreme one looks like it covers the same things, just with better components.

    Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

    wiring

     



    Do Not use "It's a Snap" Wires are too short to get to the ign. switch in a "T". Plus about 5 other too short wires. They won't sell you any more to extend them either!

    i vote for "EZ wiring". it's cheap, color coded, labeled, and all the sections are pre-organized (front, rear, engine, dash).

    this was my first wiring job. it took a little while for me to understand the basics of how it all works, but then it was easy. i did use a "painless" rocker switch panel. i'd go with them for any swiches, but EZs harness is as good as any other.

    I like Centech--have not used anything else. Their customer service rep is a street roddder so he knows the questions to ask and the kind of things you may need as a part of your harness. Painless would be my second choice.
