Hit a junk yard, find an early 90s Ranger or Explorer, WITH A 4.0. That part is important.

Next item on your shopping list can be obtained from almost any Ford/Lincoln/Mercury vehicle from the early 90s up through the mid-2000s, with cruise control. There is a little jumper harness going into the brake master cylinder. Looks like this:



Cut it open as shown in the picture above, The fuse holder can be removed, untaped, and soldered in-line for your diode holder.
