    Holy shit, i didn't realize everything was that fucked up. Like monte said, good thing it's turning into a play toy.
    I gave my truck a wash and cleaned the interior GOOD today, so i'm pretty sure I have no traces of moab anywhere (except maybe in the camping box). Looks and feels great to actually clean it that well.

    GOD YES!! Bring on my snow! Favorite time of the year!

    Ok any of you electrical wiz's....

    Im ordering a bunch of stuff for wiring everything i have and all future stuffs (cb,sterio, etc.)

    so I got the

    Blue Sea fuse block

    100amp circuit breaker seems to be the same they sell on sierra website

    Or would I be better using this Blue Sea 5005 ANL 300 Fuse Block

    30/40 AMP Relay Harness Spdt 12V Bosch Style

    and some fuses and I'll get wiring here. Anything else Im missing to make this all work?

    I got a Blue Sea fuse block, that will work great for lights and a few other things. You just cant run more then 100a through them.

    I plan on running my roof lights, bed lights and side/rear fill lights off it as well as a fridge and E blanket.

    not all at once mind you but still.

    We were too busy making our meteor shower:D more.commonly known as steel rain!! I love artillery!

    I'm just a lowly specialist (might as well be a private) and we have no sergeants in our section so I have been an acting sergeant and performing the gunners position on the howitzer. I just got to.actually chief an 8 round mission (staff sergeants position)! It was fucking awesome!

    On the downside yesterday, the 3rd round I gunned my reflexes got the best of me and one of the powder charges was about to.fall.out as I was closing the breech and I was fast enough to.beat the breech and catch the powder but that resulted in the breech cruching my left hand:frusty:

    Just wondering if that little list is all I will need to make the fuse box set up work. And if it would be better to use th 100amp breaker or a 100amp fuse instead.

    I'd run a 100A breaker that way you can flip a switch and have power back instead of replacing a fuse. I'd also run 2or 4g wire and keep it as short as possible from the battery to the breaker and the fuse box.

    Yea I was thinking a 4g wire. So any thoughts on how to make it as simple and clean as possible when running the wires to a relay and switch? Its been awhile since ive had to do any real wiring.

    If I am thinking right then its battery, breaker, fuse box, relay, lights/switch/ground(and run the grounds back to the fuse box)?

    Actually running both would be good Mac.

    Run the breaker close to the battery, then off your main wire have it feed the fuse box.

    FYI 4gauge isn't rated for 100amps so that would be over kill to get a breaker that big and dangerous.

    if you actually planning on pulling that much power which is a TON then you'll need 0/1 gauge wire.
