Anyone know where this is suppose to bolt?

Don't really know where to post this. Anyhow this is part of the speedometer cable and should bolt somewhere. I just don't know exactly where and can't figure it out. Here is a pic!

That looks like a sending unit for a cruise control.

Has a PO done a engine transplant?

It looks like it bolts onto the inner fender. It is part of the distributor modulator system.

If you don't have emission inspections and it isn't a pure restoration, you can probably do away with it.

Thanks Gentlemen

That is it, the problem is with the new Transfer case I can't bolt it there. My cable isn't long enough. I will have to try to find a longer one at the parts store!

All of the F600 trucks have that unit attached right at the speedometer head behind the dash. I have several of them I removed from F600 speedometers.
