I'm trying to get a stock radio back in.
I took the old one out, around 1982, and put an equilizer and another stereo in.
I have wires running everywhere now that I've taken those out.
So I'm unwrapping 31 years of wires from 4 speakers and radio/equalizer/cassette player.
Need help getting these figured back out.
#1
That yellow wire and plug?....what would it go to? it runs to some sort of junction box on the right wall, looks stock. The other is the antennae wire.

#2
Those two plugs are the only connections on the radio.
I'm assuming one is for speakers and one is for power. I have the plugs.
And what I think to be the original hot wire.
Which goes in which? I don't have male plugs on any existing wires.
Thanks.

 

Mine in the trekker is untouched. Ill pull the radio out tomorrow and get you some pictures. I have the optionaol cassette player too!!

 

Wow...that'd be great. I have traced wires back to the Jensens, haha, behind the seat that I bought then. And then the stock ones in the door. But, those stock wires have to wire back onto one of the plugs that I have that has two wires on it. I see, what I THINK, is 4 wires for the door speakers. So....I gotta figure how I had 4 speaker wires running into one plug that has TWO wires.
Again,,,thanks bud.

 

I think I've found the problem and just have to find a workaround now.
80LWB says that a manual he looked in shows that that truck came with two or three model radios.
Mine has speakers in each door and was plugged for that.
His, the one I got the radio from, has only one speaker and was plugged for that.
Sooo....I gotta get that one speaker plug to take those 4 wires.
There are two blacks, one red and one no striped speaker wire.
Workarounds?

 

Mark, you asked how I replaced my dash.......


I have changed the radio since this picture.... I really wanted to keep the old school radio, but it started smoking inside shortly after I put the ruck together.

 

Dood, that's a sweet looking dash and radio. Good job man.
