Deeezy's Locked Sport Grocery Getter Build

Nice!! I guess u never need the 1" spacer.

 

Hey Deez how much trimming did you do to fit the Otrattw swiches under the AC? I have three to the left of the steering wheel, had to trim those but they turnrd out great. Im told you have to trim Alot to fit em under the Ac and that they dont fit well... How was it/ Any pics are appreciated, thanks!

 

Yup, didn't need them. I'll keep them in my truck so the next time I'm in your area, I can return them.

 

I trimmed the bottom of the openings to make them taller. If you trim only the bottom, they'll all line up nicely. It's pretty much the same as the one's you already did except your just trimming different areas of the opening. Just do a little at a time and test fit the switches so you don't trim too much out.
IIRC, I think I had to trim a small bit of the width also. Just the inside though, you'll see when you open it up.

 

Thanks, how tough is it to remove the panel and run wires back there? Not to much of a bitch I'm hoping?

 

I didn't even remove any panels. I popped off all of the blanks, to get as much access/room as I could, and used a 10 ga solid wire to fish all of my wires out to the switches. It's a bitch to get wires fished to those switches. There's barely any room and it's not a straight shot for the wires but it's doable. Took me a while but it'll work if you use a stiff wire to fish your wires.

 

Did u relocate the USB plug, or just get rid of it?

 

It's actually just tucked behind those switches. I have an Iggy switch panel on the way so I might just buy one of those USB carling type switches and install it in that panel.

 

I'm in the same boat lol I was gunna get an iggy panel since I thought I wouldn't be able to use ur spot. But thanks to you it looks like I can after all, so I get to put off the iggy panel for now until I use those 3 spots up! Lol thanks for the help Deezy

 

No problem.

 

Got my switches in the mail yesterday. These will be going into an "Iggy" panel that is on the way. Fast shipping by USPS, shipped Wed and got it on Friday.
It's a 3-pos switch for my rock lights and SP switch for the drl on the S8 light bar.

 

Nice

 

amazing truck, just how i would love to build one. perfect color/wheel combo and all.

 

Thanks! My wife actaully made me buy all those certain colors. I actually wanted a silver truck, but this color has grown on me.

 

@deeezy in on your build thread! Thanks for help on the mid travel thread.

@Acerwin I think you may be doing something similar with your tire size...

I am going to attempt to switch to these HD stock length greasable shackles. Staying with the stock shackle configuration for now.

 

Shackle flip?

 

No shackle flip. I was thinking about replacing my stock shackle bushings and this deal came around. So, just replacing the stock shackles for now.

 

Nice I'm wanting to do that eventually
