I'm trying to get to the bottom of what these black boxes/relays are under the dash. The reason is they are severely in the way of getting to the nuts for the hydroboost, and I'll be tackling that possibly this weekend. The arrow points to the whole mess on the right side of this picture, originally posted by 89Suburban. Ignore the left arrow. Can this mess be removed?

Truck is an 86 C30, auto, 2wd, silverado. Originally came with pw locks and windows, cruise.

Not mistaken the silver circle is your flasher for your blinker/hazzards.

The silver relay is the hazard flasher, the white one is the horn relay, and the black one is the door chime/headlight warning/seatbelt buzzer relay thingy. I'm guessing the harness is the power and output coming and going to and from all those things.

the black box with all the wires is the power door lock relay.

Damn... So I guess I can't just cut it all out then huh... Damn thing is horribly in the way of getting to the booster nuts. I guess I'll just have to hang it all to one side while I'm working on it.

Thanks guys!
