Front/rear harness

HingsingM37 · Post by **HingsingM37** » Tue Mar 17, 2009 1:46 am

I have my wire harneses on the truck. My question is where /how do the Douglas connectors go that couple the front to rear harness?
Are there supposed to be clips on the passenger firewall that I am missing? Behind the splash shield? Doesn't make sense that it would just hang there given all the other conectors have clips? I routed the rear harness up the passenger frame rail to the engine compartment, is this correct?

If somebody has pics of this routing that would be great. Thanks.

Hi David,
Sorry no pictures-I can't even see your pix of your truck's progress on the work PC anymore. Anyway, my old harness indeed was mounted up the passenger side inner frame rail. It had no connectors at all so I can't provide any more details.

They meet at the passenger splash shield. There should be a long set of clips there. The manual has some good pics.

Cal, Rick,

Thanks. I must be missing the long row of clips near the passenger splash shield. I have extra clips on an extra fender well. I will look in the manual to see how they are arranged . Time to fab and and get "creative".

The wiring was butchered whenI got the truck.

That is Rob Young's M37. He had it restored to "as built, rolling off the assembly line" clean.

He lives in Auburn Alabama. I'm not sure what he paid to have it done but that truck is amazing. I spent an hour crawling all over it with my camera for reference photos.

I'm glad it helps, that's why I spend so much time photographing things, much to my friend's and family's chagrin.
