TX WTB Inline Fuse Holder - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Broke the metal connector inside the rubber fuse holder trying to get it apart to re-tape the wiring harness. It is located up near the battery box in the engine bay wiring harness on my 68 GMC. Anyone know where to get a new one or have a used one for sale.

Do you need both ends?

I will check tomorrow as I may have what you need.

Yes, I need both ends with enough wire so I can splice them in. They break pretty easy when you take them apart. They have been together for over 40 years.

I don't have both ends that are not part of a good harness. I have the large end if you can use it. It is in good condition and has 4" of pigtail on it. If you want it just cover the postage and I will be glad to send it to you.

I am curious as to why yours broke as I have only broken the fuses in the dozens that I have taken apart over the years.

I twisted it, trying to get it apart. The clips were bonded to the fuse on both ends and the clips sheared off down inside. Once it was apart I understood what had happened. Thanks for the offer, but I need both ends.

Erl, I think I have some out there if I can find them. I cut them off harnesses before I took the copper to scrap. I'll look Wed after work

Thanks Randy

Randy, you were my next Email. I figured you had a few of these. I am also needing a muffler support as shown below.

Erl,

I looked through my miscelaneous wire collection again and found the other end, (my miscelaneus wire collecion looks like 2' hair ball). There is a 4" pigtail on the large end and a 2' pigtail on the small end.

Anyway, if you still need the parts you can have both for postage.

Erl, sorry none of those brackets right now. Looks like Jim has you set up for the wiring, if you need one with a bit longer wire let me know and I'll get it in the mail. Thanks Randy
