Re: 51' 3100 build in PA New to Site
Aug 28th weekend.
WIRING- Well I am new to wiring and thus far, all is going good.
I got everything moched up and ran where it needs to go and began
wrapping all the wires in plastic molding. I ran the rear wires down through
the floor and through the frame. The front wires went through and existing hole (though I made it bigger) right beside the brake booster. I used a 21 circuit harness from EZ wiring 185 to my door I think. There are some things I won't use such as power windows, lock antenna etc, but it is nice to have some extra circuits. I ran all them to about the middle of the dash, looped them and will tie them up.
Some things I am not sure of would be the aftermarket turn signal. My aftermarket ignition switch has no labeling or anything, so I am not sure on
that one yet. I am going email EZ wiring some pictures and hope they can help me out. I don't have my brake light indicator on my pedal, so I have to pick one of them up to get the tail lights to work.
I used a voltage reducer so I can run the original fuel gauge, actually not sure now if that will work because of the ohms. S**t, I'll have to find out about that. I hear s-10's run 90 ohms while the older gauges ran 30. Got a voltage reducer for the heater though. all the other switches are 12 volt that I will be using.
Lastly here is a keystone turn signal shell that I made. I will be finishing these up for tail and turn signals, mounted to the front and back. I have wanted to make these since before I started the build. These will be the finishing touches to my build.
