Where is the correct location to mount the turn signal relay box that is included in the 50's turn signal kit?

Rick

I can't say if it's the correct location, but mine is attached to the bracket for the voltage regulator off the driver's side firewall.

I thought it bolted onto the left side of the glove box. That is where I mounted my flasher unit.

Like Tim, I mounted mine onto the left side of the glove box.

From TM 9-2320-212-20, page 2-68, paragraph 2-47

This is the wrong diagram. This is for the solid state system. The thread discussion is for the older system with the distribution box.

Thank you for pointing that out, I'll see if another can be located.

The 1963 MWO for the turn signal kits, with the older, non-solid state flasher, shows the "typical" location for the 3/4 tons is on the inner left fender. The text accompanying it states: "Locate distribution relay box 8683529 in the most convenient place in the engine compartment making sure that leads from the directional control will reach the relay box terminals."
