How much are you looking for? The dash harness goes out on each side all the way to the headlights.

I've never had a truck without gauges so not sure what all is needed for the swap. I could pull some of the harness next time I am at the jy but would need the specifics.

Will do but honestly, if you are set on replacing the whole harness, you'd be ahead to find a cheap truck locally. Not sure if you've already gathered your 4wd parts but if not you could get everything from a single truck.
Not trying to be discouraging, just throwing out another option.

That would be the best way to get the needed parts for both 4wd & the harness.
Note if you want dual tanks that starts with the part of the main (in cab) harness and the frame rail harness.
Don't think you would need to run both thanks if you did not want to but you may have to use a jumper at the plug where the switch would be to get the fuel gauge to work as both senders go thru the switch before going to the gauge.

Having done a 4x4 swap myself, I completely agree with Scott that a whole donor truck is the way to go. If you can find an early bullnose one that has the wiring you need then so much the better, you kill two birds with one stone. Just remember the 4x4 parts are compatible through 1996 which opens up a lot more options when looking.
SHORT BED 4-DOOR DIESEL: 1986 F350 4x4 under construction-- 7.3 IDIT ZF5+GVOD

STRAIGHT SIX 4X4: 1981 F150 2wd to 4x4-- 300 I6 close ratio diesel T19, hydroboost brakes, Saginaw steering

BIG F: 1995 F-Superduty under construction— converting to 6.9L IDI diesel ZF5+DNE2
