    Check your wattage and amperage demands dude you REALLY need a relay or risk lighting wires up as the weakest link when you keep upping the fuses.

    Unless you're already doing that. Then you've got a short.

    Badass!
    Thanks to you, we just found an alternative to a big heavy service body for our new tundra work truck!
    They really should do more advertising they've got a badass product

    Anyone know if you can mount a bedslide bed drawer thing on top of this?

    3" rough country lift. Blue interior lights courtesy of jumper led. Led tail lights avid front and rear bumper guard with 4 Hellas on front. Borla dual exhaust blue led reverse lights color matched satoshi grille

    I blew a 7.5 and 10 but I figured out problem the wire with inline fuse was like 18-20 gauge and everything else is 14-16 gauge. When I finish wiring and cutting out the spot for my switch I'm goin to check the fuses again cuz I know 20 will work

    Careful....
    I only warn you out of first hand experience.
    If your circuit is more than 2 amps, RUN A RELAY.
    You need to be running 10 or at absolute worst, 12 ga wire. I personally have done exactly what you're doing with 16 ga wire and an inline fuse- got tired of blowing fuses, so used a 20 amp fuse. That lasted for a while, blew it, used a 25 amp fuse,
    Then opened the hood and the weakest link was now the wire- which had all lit up and burned the engine bay down.

    Please don't learn the hard way- that's why we all joined this forum. Wire fire is no joke.

    Hopefully I'm reading your stuff wrong & I'm preaching to the choir - but rather have it out there to warn anyone! :)

    I like your bumper set up a lot. We're doing a led protector bar like yours too. Don't see too many like that

    Welcome to TW!

    generally 265/75 16 is the biggest with none to minor trimming. What lift did you get for your 5 lug? Not all will fit.
