![]() ![]() This took some tricky snaking, but the end result was worth it. It's high enough to clear the rise in the floor of the vehicle and allows wiring to fit in the minimal gap between the suspension air tank and the floor. It measures about 2.25" across, and using a hole saw I cut out the appropriate hole in the trunk/tire surround trim to allow wiring to pass through. ![]() In order to get the wiring into the trunk area I was hoping to use some kind of brush-plate from home A/V installs, but in my searching I found a computer-desk type grommet for wiring, which turned out to be perfect for my use. This took quite a bit of time, and was sort of a pain in the butt, but I think the cleanliness of the end result was worth it. As of now the basic wiring is set, and I’ve pretty much gotten as far as I can before the last bit of parts arrive and I move this set-up into the back of the Jeep.Īfter getting the system tested with temporary wiring, I went ahead and got to work making the necessary wiring looms to get all of the electrical components (lighting, radio/comms, fridge) bought back to the Blue Sea Systems fuse panel and connected appropriately. It took a quick trip to Harbor Freight to buy a handheld hydraulic crimper to tackle the 4AWG connections, but it seems like a good tool to have for the future. The Blue Sea Systems fuse panel and relay control box will live on the driver’s side of the compartment, and wiring will be routed between the two without needing much distance at all. In-line fuses to the side and again in front of the (+) post of the House battery. Battery will be on the passenger side, with the Wirthco Intelligent Isolator mounted on a bracket in front of it. I played around with the parts on the deck once it was in the living room and figured out a clean layout for the equipment. I chose one that’s a bit larger to allow for future expansion, after measuring and ensuring that it will fit on the deck. The relay control box was pretty tired after months of working with it and moving it to a resting spot, so I went ahead and ordered a new ABS project box to be installed in the new spot in the back. I unfortunately spent an hour or so cutting up the existing wiring system in the Jeep, pulling out the control box and re-routing the existing auxiliary lighting and radio harnesses to the rear trunk area for use in a few days time. With paint dry, I moved the deck into the house and turned the living room into my mad science laboratory getting the fun part of the project underway. This actually will work to my benefit, as it will push me even more to keep the wire routing clean, even though it’ll never really be seen. While my initial thought was just to do it black, she asked for silver… so it’s metallic silver.
