What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

That's what I did for my Rubicon and the improved departure angle was excellent. I'm really not sure how I want to route the Taco pipes, though. That's probably an entire month of research I haven't started just yet.

 

sorry im a noob with electrical. is this where you connect all your aux lighting? is this the aux fuse box?

 

Yes to the first part, essentially on the second part.

 

I need a clean up kit like this...I have at least 6 aux harnesses and a rats nest of wires...I don’t even know where to start...where did you get this rainbow of simplification I keep seeing in peoples pics...and did you install it yourself or is this a pro job?

 

A Switch pro 9100 is a customizable switch panel with a distribution panel. A Power tray is a distribution panel but you need to use your own style switches.

Kept this mod simple, it was needed. The stock knob was way too light for my liking. FJ knob with a 1" grommet holding the shifter boot trim in place.

Trying this tomorrow with a 1" grommet! Thanks for the tip!

 

So i have ditch lights and bumper LED bar, both have the wiring harness. If i got this kit i use the wiring harness they gave me with the lights and with some work i connect them all into this switchpro? there a lot of splicing i assume?

 

Nope, not a ton at all. Hot goes to a bus bar that goes to the switch-pro, cold goes to a cold bar that gets grounded.

Thx for that bear...but that’s just the beginning...the tray is awesome but I don’t know the fist thing about all the products that get installed on it let alone connecting them to all of it.

 

Not a lot of splicing really. Just need two add a fuse taps. The only thing you connect to the harness that it comes with is the lights.

 

Don’t think I need a switch pro either...I have all my switches already

 

Well I guess technically I am a professional since I'm a technician and wiring is my forte. I did it myself. I'm not really even 100% happy with it seeing how I had to mount the ground block and the terminal block to the fuse box lid. I really wanted to have a plate to put them on without adding an additional fuse box like the power tray option.

 

The switch pro combines all switches into one unit.

 

If you dont plan on adding anymore accessories you can just connect those harnesses you have to the positive battery post. If you start adding more I would go with a distribution panel. You should only have to connect your lights to the supplied harness and switches. No splicing of truck wires.

 

Wish you were in Massachusetts...I am gonna need some serious help with all tis

 

It's all about planning from step one.



This is the wiring for the front and rear lights. It's the first thing I did and I wanted it as factory as possible. I make harnesses as a hobby and keeping it factory looking is my main goal.

 

Ok...yeah...looked that up and def don’t need a switch pro...but the rest of this clean up is a must...if there’s anyone out there in Massachusetts that can help with this stuff please pm me.

 

Anyone know if these power trays are compatible with the redline hood struts?

 

The switch pro is the clean up. You won't get much cleaner than that without a similar setup. It's the whole selling point.
