Re-route the wire if it is taking an inefficient route like through wire channel on the firewall and wire clip, and instead run it from the firewall connector in a more direct way to the distribution block, or splice in a piece of wire to lengthen it and route it any way that looks neat, or become a subscribing member of the forum and post a want-to-buy ad in the parts section and ask for somebody to send you that wire. I didn't know there was such an extension wire like that. There are people here on the forum who have their original wire harnesses stashed and offer parts and pieces to people who need them in response to want-to-buy ads, I have experience with that.
You are correct and it is only a distribution value and not a proportioning value. I think I kept the old old wire harness that I took off the truck so i just extend it when the time come. Thanks for the correction and I will just modify the existing one. I know what your talking about removing it from clip on the fire wall.
