Hello and welcome to 2CarPros. Unfortunately it's a little more complex than that. There are dozens of wires, actuators, and servos involved. Also, you'd probably have to get another computer, as cruise control is run through a computer these days. Is it doable? Yes. Is it worth it? No. It'd cost thousands to get everything done. It would probably be cheaper to trade in your truck towards one that has it.

I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
