Doghead mod can I use this part

[Okie Cowboy]

I went to my closest parts store which is about 15 miles away to get relay. I got there gave part number they didn't have it. The counter guy who looked it up gave me part number 701829 said only difference was this one was universal mount that's why they stock it. I just want to make sure before I burn my truck to the ground that it will work or should I drive the 80 + mile round trip to auto-zone or such.
The relay looks the same just has extra place to mount it on its side.

Need more info.

Yes, this should work

That's what I have prime line 701829 made by same company as the other part that Doghead calls for, the only difference I found was added mounting option when you look up parts they say same thing I just wasn't sure. I'm also going to cap the stud ends with some rubber vacuum line ends along with some electrical tape.

Good call, because weird things happen when a socket falls from a ratchet onto those terminals.

Nope. You can't use it. I looked it up, and this is what I found:

WARNING:
CHOKING HAZARD -- Small parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

On a serious note, check the terminals for continuity to ground. As long as none of the terminals are connected to ground, it's probably okay.

Ok just finished mod truck starts no fire sparks or explosions. I found out I had no relay I had the army mod just a jumper between purple and purple white wire no relay no stuck relay. I remember my old motor Sgt. doing this in things to get from point a to b but never meant to be a perm fix.
