Angry engine wiring harness 1999 ram 1500 v8 4x4

hi i have a 1999 dodge ram 1500 4x4 automatic-with overdrive, gas, with a 5.9L v8, I need the entire main engine wiring harness for it, I cant find 1 anywhere. the dealership discontinued supplying that part(wanted over 1200 for it anyway, i cant afford that), no autoparts can get it and all salvage yards within 3000 miles dont have my truck, ill order one from somewhere if i can find 1, its the main harness under the hood that connects to everything from the fuse box to computer. I can't believe how difficult it is to find 1 of these,

1999 dodge ram 1500 4x4 5.9L V8 gas Automatic with overdrive, cruise, last 9 digits of vin number are :3xm504132.

I need my truck to get to work and back so any help would be greatly appreciated.

dont feel bad OP i had a brake line blow on the exaust and set my engine harness on fire burnt the sencer connectors on the TB 2001 dodge ram 1500 5.9L Sport 4x4 automatic and the dodge makes it still $2500 plus tax. so $1200 is cheap lol my harness has to come from a 1999-2001 sport 5.9 4x4. cant find one anywhere else.

www.car-part.com

Look up based on your zip, plug in your make model YEAR and engine. Look at what comes up to match your drive (4x4 or 2x4) and tranny type. They run 200-250 bucks. You want the ENGINE wiring harness.
