It is in the trailer connectors section. it is double ended, so you would have to cut off one end to wire it up. was like 4 bucks. https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/...653?q=Trailer+Connector+2+pin&pos=57 Last edited by Andrewh; 04/30/19 04:24 PM.

The ones I've found at the parts store look the same but they're smaller. I noticed that as well. The NSS wire harness uses the same 2 pin and a single pin to make the connections, the trailer plugs are 90% the same but slightly off. It will 'work' and make an electrical connection but not have the oem fit up.

Except it's a lot cheaper to just buy the pig tail to fix the non pickup side than it is to buy a new pickup, cut off the pigtail and splice it in. They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.
