The Jeep parts book shows the connector as part of the tailgate switch - not available separately. There is a pigtail that plugs in to the switch and connects to the wiring harness.
Your link won't work with an extra space included http://www.teamgrandwagoneer.com/tailga ... 1974-1991/
(and, being picky ... the link has to start with "www" or "http" to be identified as a clickable link by the forum software. Just FYI.)
I see you fixed it in your duplicate post.

(It had some kind of hangup on me trying to post this, i thought it was due to having a hyperlink within my text. So I obfuscated it by removing the protocol and "www." designation figuring anyone could figure it out from there. )
Anyways. Inside my pigtail, one of the 90* terminal connectors seems to have broken, and i am trying to see if that is a terminal in which may have a common place name within the auto electrical industry.
But might just end up soldering it if i cant reproduce one myself. Or maybe find the tailgate pigtail. hmmm might be worth a shot there.
You might try a bullet connector. I don't know if they come in right-angle form, but the straight-on type might work if there's enough clearance. Unless you are really proficient, soldering on that part will be risky. The part is expensive, and you'll need a lot of heat and fast action to get a good joint without melting the whole switch. I would first try to get a different pigtail from a Jeep junkyard before attempting to solder.
