Does anyone know what size wire a Ben Hur uses

Post by tractor »

I plan to make a few wiring harnesses in the near future. I was thinking it was 14 gauge but not 100% sure can someone help. Also anyone know how much sticks over the tounge to go to the truck? The 2 trailers I have at my house the harness was cut just forward of the box. Also Does anyone know where I can get the trailer male end? I found the asbestos wire loom and a few suppliers for the wire just need to figure out sizes.
