New England B.S. Thread

I think the light is going to be bright enough that it would pretty hard to forget it is on lol, but thats a good idea i will probably do it anyway. Alex also offered to help me wire it, but it is a long drive and i am going to want to install it ASAP, not wait until i have a free day to get up there. Thanks for offering though. Taking the bumper off and re mounting it by myself is ganna suck. What size fuse would you recomend? 20a right? Told you i am a wiring noob

 

10A

 

You will see . Now that you joined up. I'd skip the front locker for now . Go with one of your other purchases .

 

How do you figure, the 36" bar draws 234 watts, that's almost 20 amps...

I'd go 20a fuse and heavier wiring, like 14 ga. minimum and make sure you use a relay. Do not wire it like I mentioned in my previous post. The 10A switch won't take that kind of load.

 

i figured out i cant run a impact gun ,space heater ,ipod radio and strip lights in my garage . i popped the breaker stupid rental property .

 

Nice! I just got an electric impact gun for Christmas. Should make working on the truck a lot quicker.

 

I actually booked my room today!

 

What did you get?

 

Chicago tools. Cheap, will do the trick though for what I'll use it for. I also got a nice Skil power drill that will be used to drill out the frame when the sliders come

 

Same place ? Ill have to remember to do that soon .i have to put in the vacation time as well .

 

My bad

 

Sliders! I bought some step bits. Hopefully they can do the job. Thanks for the help Mike, im still going to read up on some stuff so i have a better inderstanding but at least now i have a direction

 

When is the RC meet? I'm gonna go with Sarah and we'll be camping

 

Hehe, have fun wiring Evan's light bar

I'll be on stand by

 

I wanted to use heavier gauge wiring anyway. 20A fuse it is

 

I like working with heavier gauge wire anyways. Much easier to solder connections and work with. The thin wires are a PITA.

 

Thanks,been wanting to get one.

Ya,Comfort Inn,go through the Rausch site to get the discount.
My work was screwing with me over 2 friggin days becuase me and the kid i work with wanted time off in the same week,they really suck sometimes.

 

It'll be a while before I put it to use but I'll let you know how it goes. It's Harbor Freight brand, it feels good and heavy though.

 

Who needs a lift?

$500 for remote resi Fox coilovers and LR UCAs.

 

Thats an awesome deal. He said the coilovers are being rebuilt. Older light racing arms with older style bushings but for $500 that is a steal
