Dirttrack510 Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Like title says, I need a good fuse box for a 1971 510 with an automatic transmission. Mine has been repaired several times with with wire splices and solder and i'm starting to worry about an electrical fire starting. I tried a 1971 4 speed fuse box and the wiring is different, so it has to be from an automatic. Pm me if you have one available. Link to comment
yenpit Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Don't think it's an AUTOMATIC thing, just a different production year. Does your box have wires coming out from the bottom with white plastic plugs, OR white plastic plugs on the box? And if plugs on the box, how many additional "loose" wires coming out from the bottom, in between the two plugs? Link to comment
hobbes_the_cat Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 It also is a wagon / sedan difference too Link to comment
yenpit Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 hobbes, is that where the # of "loose" individual wires comes into play.........Wagon vs Sedan? Link to comment
hobbes_the_cat Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 I believe so, but the year model also has something to do with it as well. No one has documented exactly what the differences are to my knowledge. I have had a few different ones and it looked like the plug wiring was the same but the individual wires that come out the center were piggy backed from different locations. Link to comment

I agree with the above, its a year model thing mostly. I also have several but I would need to know exactly how your application needs to look, The only person I know that knows how to determine which box goes with which year is Rod Eaton, his email is: rod@rodsdatsun.com.
