An electrical connector assembly (100) includes a housing (120) having a front end (122) and a rear end (124) and including housing channels (126) extending axially from the front end to the rear end for holding a wire assembly (102). The connector assembly includes a stabilizer (104) having a front end and a rear end (154). The stabilizer (104) includes supports (158) extending from the front end with support channels (160) along a longitudinal axis of the stabilizer. The stabilizer is coupled to the rear end (124) of the housing (120) so that the support channels (160) align with the housing channels (126) to accept corresponding wire assemblies therein. A front retaining feature (130) holds the stabilizer to the housing. A rear retaining feature (132) holds the wire assemblies to the stabilizer.
