You'll have to buy everything (housings, pins, etc.) separately, but generally their prices are pretty good.

 

it's going to be difficult to really find that connector with out photos. if you find the matching set let me know.

 

male/female d38999 connectors.

you guys have it good, $ 45 your price, our price is $ 85 ( from digikey canada ) .

Thanks for the link humphrizzle,

 

how do you read the chart? its confusing. what does # of positions, shell size insert, shell size military etc mean.

 

or which ones do rywire and chase bay use?

 

What exactly are you looking to do?

 

Decide how many pins you need and call the number for digikey. The csr should know how to place your order.. but the connections should be around 20-50 bucks each. I work on planes.. and you need a special crimper to pin the wires in these plugs.

 

trying to make a engine harness that exactly to rywire or chase without spending 600 + bucks

 

ok. any idea how much the crimpers cost and specific name they are called? also if ordering the plug will they come with the pins male and female?

 

found some instructions

my DMC crimper set cost a **** load.

they're on this website for 325. i paid about 500 for my set a few years ago.

 

Not sure if they sell them for those plugs but we use amphenol connectors in the mill with solder on pins not crimp. If your good at soldering you might want to look I to it cause the crimpers are about 250-300.

 

I want to know this too.
Let us know how it works out and the costs.

 

i found some crimpers online used for decent amount but not sure if they are the correct ones. can you send me a link to the solder on type pins and plugs. tia

 

The dmc crimpers are a great purchase. But there are 2 types of pins and 2 types of crimpers. Make sure they will work for the pins you choose.
