Rear-end lighting harness

I've got a dually bed waiting to be swapped on my '90. If a factory harness isn't available, I could build the harness myself but I'd need the proper connectors, mainly the 4-ways at the rear of the frame. Would I have any luck finding this harness at the dealer?

Even if it was available at the dealer, I'd be hitting the U-Pull-Its.

Not long ago I came across a guy on E-bay who makes rear wiring harness for our trucks. He can build one to what ever you want. I need one for my crewcab since the wires are all brittle and cracked...I've tried the Pick-a-parts...but most 93 and earlier harnesses are not much better then what I have. I thought a 94 and newer harness might work, but the light connectors won't work on our tail lights lenses.

Thanks for the link, Brian. I wonder if that store might have the 4-way connectors I'd need to plug into the truck side of the wiring. There's already in the bed but all the important connectors have been cut. As I said, if I could at least find the 4-way connectors, I'd build one of my own using the sockets. I'll try to contact the seller and discuss such options.

I borrowed this picture from NJTMan's thread about preserving his truck's frame. These are the 4-way connectors I'd like to find (about centered in the picture).
