Hi guys,
Long story short I want to purchase a delphi weather pack crimping tool. I want to use some quality connectors on my 7MGE's engine harness to body harness connections and I thought the weather-pack connectors would be a good choice.
I thought investing in a tool that can properly make these types of connections would come in handy elsewhere in the car.
I've got a nice catalog from waytek but their dedicated crimper for the job is $90. That seems a bit steep for a crimper that doesn't have removable dies. I was hoping one of you electrical guru's (figgie?) could point me in the right direction.
MIL-spec connectors seem overkill for my needs. Really, I probably will only be making a few of these connections...but want them to be sound. I thought the weather pack connectors would be a good balance between quality, versatility and price. I don't need a professional quality tool but if I'm forced to spend a significant amount of money, I want to make sure I'm getting good value. Perhaps there is a crimper with removable dies in this price range?
hopefully you somebody can suggest a connector style and crimping tool that would give the most value.
Thanks in advance,
Steve
