3.4 swap

I'm new here so please forgive me if I ask a redundant question. I have only lurked a little for info..
I'm starting a swap in my 93 4X4 pickup. I have a complete 96 T100 4X4 for parts and such. I'm gonna install the 3.4 and 4X4 5 speed transmission. The crossover pipe tutorial is amazingly helpful. The biggest issue I expect to have is mating the wiring harness to my truck.. I have the complete engine harness and ECM. There are about 18 wires on two plugs that have to be crossed.
My opening question is: Are the wiring color codes the same from the 93 22RE to the 3.4 from the T100?
Any wiring suggestions will be helpful.
thanks in advance,
Scott

The simple answer is "not likely". when I did my swap I printed out tons of wiring diagrams and connector pinouts that I got off of TIS specific to the donor vehicle and my 4runner. I tacked them up on the walls of my shop and worked through one circuit at a time. Most of the wires were different colors. You either need to get a pre-made harness (special made for your application) or be methodical and do it yourself.
