The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The Electrical Bay 1937 Re-wire

I have a 1937 1/2 ton that needs a re-wire job. I want to convert to 12volt and add turn signals, another tail light and possible upgrade to LED lighting. In the cab all I would add is possible a small stereo set up and I want to put the fuse block under the seat, (fuel tank is no longer under the seat)

Looking for suggestions on a good wiring harness with the proper amount of circuits and equipment I need.

Thanks,
Charlie

Go to the Links here and you'll find several....and different prices! With what your suggesting 12 circuits would work but you can find harnesses with more circuits for about the same money.
Personally, for value to dollar, I like Rebel and EZwire. Rebel wire was giving Bolters a 15% discount off their already good prices..... however, I went with EZWire as I wanted the "mini" fuse set up.
Lots of options out there so put on your reading glasses and get started

Say, how about a picture of your 37 when you can get to it.

Thanks for the info!!
Here are a few pics of my truck when I brought it home this past sept.

Wow....she looks in great shape ! I picked up a Painless 18 Cct. universal truck kit on E Bay for a good price. Didn't need 18 Cct. but nice to have a few spares for future ( P windows, Air, Elec. fuel pump, etc. )

Wow, that is a nice looking truck! Did you buy it like that?

I did buy the truck in its current condition. I am very luck with this truck because it was bought new by my great grandfather and has been in the family its whole life. My uncle owned the truck from the late 80's to last Sept when I bought it from him and he did a fairly detailed restoration on it in 89.

I made my own wiring harness for my 37 with inline fuses since there are not many curcuits,it was very easy to do since I just sat the cab back on the chassis and made the wires longer then needed and cut them and added ends when it came togather. I drew up a schematic and the colors of the wires I wanted and bought bulk wire and quick disconnects so it could be servicable.

Great looking '37!
