Mega Fuse Mounting Place?

I have a 69 GMC and a American AutoWire kit.
Where did you guys mount the mega fuses? There are lots of options (frame, fender, firewall, ect.) and I can decide on the best.
Thanks

I mounted mine under the heater box close to the right inner fender. Easy to see and easy to replace if needed. I carry an extra fuse in the glove box but have never need it.

Thanks, thats the general area I think I will end up at. I'm thinking lower passenger firewall. With my nice new wire harness I wanna keep it clean.
I'm just wondering what other folks have done.

That doesn't look like the mega fuse that came with my AAW kit. Here's where I put mine, pretty standard placement.

Very handy placement and fuses are easy to get to.

Just make sure it's close to battery too.

Thumbs up Re: Mega Fuse Mounting Place?

Fuses should always be a close to the source as possible. The shorter the better it will work.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
