'71 Overlander Wiring Diagram

Does any one have a 1971 Overlander wiring diagram? I've searched the forums and there doesn't appear to be one, yet. I would greatly appreciate it!
I also want to run a 50 amp fuse from my battery to my new Intellipower 9245. The guy at the auto parts store told me that any fuse holder would work, it's just a matter of what fuse you put inside. Doesn't sound quite right since the gauge of the wire in and out is important. What gives? Where does one find a 30/50 amp fuse holder locally, anyway?
Thanks!

Try a local Napa Auto parts... also, a circuit breaker is really nice in
this application:

The circuit breaker protects all wires after it; mount it as close as possible to the batteries themselves. Don't place something that may spark in the battery box, though.

Is this Original Equipment

I've been researching and trying to find a wiring diagram for my '71 Overlander. I then remembered that there was a breaker box in the bathroom closet. Are these for the AC, oven, stove and furnace? I have no idea. Anyone have an answer? And, if someone has a wiring diagram for a 1971 Overlander, I'd appreciate getting a copy. I will be installing an Intellipower 9245 next week. Thanks a bunch!!

That is original. Left 30 amp is main shut off. Left 20 amp is rear/center of trailer including the convertor outlet. Center 20 is front of trailer. Right 20 is A/C.

Thats presuming no one has messed with it.

12 Volt Diagram

May come in handy if your changing out the convertor. You may want to think about ordering a 72 Service Manual - it will make your life easier.
