1959 GMC 1/2 ton. Putting together from boxes of parts. i have the assembly manual and all the pictures show the regulator on firewall. But all the wiring I have seem to lead me to the regulator on the passenger side fender well. is the GMC different from the Chevy's in tne manual? I do not have any of the sheet metal on the truck except the cab.

Our 57 Jimmy 100 has the regulator on the passenger inner fender, not on the firewall. The truck has not been modified. Ed

I have a '59 GMC ½-ton fleet option that has it on the firewall, a '59 GMC 2-ton dumper that has it on the passenger inner fender and a '55 GMC 450 with it on the firewall. All the trucks have 6 cylinder engines. I have no idea why there are differences.
