    The ones people build on here are a good price, the only reason I'm doing it myself if i'm building 3 and maybe a 4th down the road so that helps justify the price of the tools

    ah ok, i was planning on using one of those for lights and cb radio. light duty stuff. while my stereo, winch and air compressor would be directly to the battery. unless the bussman would work for everything. planning on having as much lights on my rig as you Monte lol:anonymous:

    a Bussman can only do 80amps. Which i think is the same as the Bluesea box too.

    The Bussman is great for lights though because it has relays built into it. The bluesea does not so you'd have to mount relays somewhere else. CB you want direct to battery anyways to avoid interference. The air compressor could go through the bussman, just not with a lot of other stuff on at the time.

    so lights and air compressor on the bussman would do great. (as long as the lights are off) well its only $10-$15 more i'll support a TW member for that :) plus if it looks cleaner means less of a headache for me in the long run lol

    Well I’ve been driving it. Deffinetly seems tighter than before. The carrier bearing was toast.

    I’ll take a look at it tomorrow to see if any grease is coming out anywhere. And I’ll also take a look at the type of grease I put in there.

    Skygear was a shit show and a step away from a scam artist. Do not buy from him.
