In WA eh? I haven't played around with too much with getting the 3.4 cruise in my swaps. But you will need a brake signal, IDL signal, clutch switch signal. The early 3.4 cruise systems used a seperate computer 2 row pins. And the newer units have the ecu built into the cruise control motor.

On other swaps I've done that the recipient had cruise, I was able to just relocate the unit to the passenger side and rework the ball on the cable to a bar so it fits the 3.4 throttle body.

Let me get this straight.

You've spent $90,000 and nearly 2000 man hours building a buggy but you can't wire up a 3.4?

And you plan on driving it to the grocery store?

And the highway?

lol

To get started you should start a thread on Pirate.
Reckon they should have some good advice.
Or you could try posting a help wanted ad.
Looks like your almost there.
Likely will be quite the ride.

Surely there's a better forum or sub to ask this in than a 3.4 swap section?
