Hi all,

I got a new wiring harness, but it doesnt have the plastic connectors..the guy said to just reuse them. Seeing as I dont have much of my wiring harness left, I only have a grand total of 3 connectors out of god knows how many I need. I was thinking of looking in like Digi-Key's catalog for a same kind of connector and use that, but I have no idea what you call these things!

Any idea what you call them?They look like butt connectors, but not sure. Thanks!

I knew what the whole assembly was called.

But I meant what do you call the piece I have outlined here.


besides "connector"

Some folks call them Bullet Connectors, some folks call them Sleeves but the manufacturer and the Army call them a connector and that's what you need to call them when you order them.

Connector PN 7762634 or 573000

Bob did you find some of those connectors yet? I believe I got some from MidWestMilitary.

Hi Ken, I've found some of my old ones - which is good. Gonna email DigiKey tommorrow with a diagram with some sizes and see if they got anything remotely simular. I can't imagine they dont have soemthing that will function the same -- their catalog is ginormous.

You are probably going to have to get tehm from Midwest Military or another supplier... I got mine from Vintage Wiring of Maine for $1.35 each... I needed all of them for my M-38 (35 total)... but well worth the expense...

I understand that these are not made anymore... VWOM said he tried to get some made but the cost was $4.00 each if made. He said it was not worth the cost...

The entire connector is sold on eBayin lots of 5. Both doubles and singles.

Just need to shop around...

Hope this helps...
