Removing fuse box / panel 1981 C20 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I searched google and used the search function on this site before posting this question (maybe I haven't worded it correctly) but how do you take the fuse panel out?

I have removed three bolts so far. 2 in the cab and on in the engine side of the panel, I have tried to pull it a part but am hesitant to use too much force.

I have the engine compartment just about gutted and would like to see about cleaning compartment side of the panel up and running some new wires where the existing wires are melted or are in disrepair.

Thanks in advance and I'll keep looking for directions.

Ok I figured it out. You just have to wiggle the heck out of the engine side fuse block / panel / wiring harness (trying to get the correct terminology). Pictures may follow tonight if I get a chance to load them.

Pictures would be great, if you can do it. I am in the process of stripping down a parts K20 myself, and I'm stumped by the fuse block as well. Any extra info or pics you can add would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
