Where to get new Junction Block?

The Junction Block that goes on the firewall...I'm going to do that headlight upgrade, and I want to put a new JB on too, because of the electric fan and stuff..where would I get one, and about how much can I expect? Thanks.

Re: Where to get new Junction Block?

I'd check around some of the aftermarket catalogs first. Or if you have a good contact at a gm dealership who will take the time to look something older up for you it might be still had thru gm. Since i worked at frieghtliner for 10 years i am going to use something similiar but its a bulhead connector as a hole has to be drilled thru the firewall as i want all my accessory circuits seperate from the oem fuse panel. I'm going to run 3 so i have batt hot - gnd - and ign.

Re: Where to get new Junction Block?

You guys are thinking of the wrong part, I think...
This is the little diamond shape thing, on the top of the firewall, has two posts on it, one is BAT and the other goes somewhere into the truck...
