Electrical smarts needed
I got a good deal on a new forward wiring harness for my 80' but unfortunately it doesn't have the power wire that runs from the alternator to the fuse box. It's the battery charge wire I presume and replaces the dedicated alternator to battery wire on some 80's.
I'd like to add that wire back into the harness but I cannot find anyone that sells just the terminals you see below (this one is shot) so I can wire it up to the fuse panel myself. Anyone know where I can get these?? The other option is to just run a wire directly from the alternator to the battery but I'm unsure if that will leave other fuse panel circuits without the necessary power. Appreciate any help!
