fusible links

Working on a different vehicle where all the fusible links coming off the starter are shot. I want to replace with bladed fuses so I'm thinking of taking the battery cable to the firewall and there add a junction block and fuse block.

What I'm not sure of is how to achieve this. The battery cable has a ring terminal mid length so this is probably where I can pull power to the junction block.

Also the fuse block has the terminals that are all connected. I'm assuming it's going to be a common power coming from battery?

Re: fusible links

Replacing fusible links with conventional fuses is not a good idea.. Replace those old fusible links with new ones..

Re: fusible links

I seen some harness makers are using max atm fuses in there harness instead of fuseable links

You would need to size them accordingly to the fuseable link ampacity
