Wiring diagram shows it as a junction block. I thought it was grounded. Don't know where to get one but should be able to fix.

That's correct. It should be heavily insulated from ground. If those wires ground out you can fry some of the wiring.

Thanks. Hoping someone can include a part # and a hyperlink of where to buy this part as mine is not repairable.

Ford superceded the part at least twice by 1973 - There are NOS junction blocks available with the newer part number

D3TZ-14448-A | RearCounter.com | 75 found at 5 sellers

I don't know of anyone reproducing the orignal style for our trucks, but this later one is the service replacement part.

Here's a link showing what the later part number looks like. As you can see it will be visually different at a minimum.

Another alternative for the alternator gauge would be a fuse block as opposed to the junction block. Installed a 30 amp fuse block in the 65.
