@TimmyTooTall I learned a lot doing this project for sure. Had to draw it all out on paper a few times to get to where I liked it.

One of the circuits from the Safety Hub is in the back corner of the Scrambler. I added a Blue Sea 6 circuit fuse block: https://www.bluesea.com/products/5025/ST_Blade_Fuse_Block_-_6_Circuits_with_Negative_Bus_and_Cover I was able to mount it on the driver side body protected by the roll...

Been busy with work but worked in some Scrambler time in-between. This will be an electrical accessory update. Here is a current picture of the under hood shelf I made and the fuse block, controller and shutoff breaker: I made the shelf out of 1/2" thick commercial cutting board. Mounted...

The Painless wiring manual is awesome. Really helped me when I installed their 10150 harness in my Scrambler. Here is a link to the PDF version of the manual: https://www.painlessperformance.com/Manuals/10150.pdf

Came back to my work office from lunch and this was in the parking lot at the building next to us. I went into the first floor business but nobody knew whose it was. There are 8+ businesses in that building. I'm kicking myself that I didn't leave a note for the owner. Besides me, this is...

I also have the one from MTS. 600 miles since I got it driving and no issues with venting or fumes.

Cool rig! Was that a factory top?

Oh...NOW you tell me that Randy? :) Good tip. I will check that out. I have run it for a few hours straight at high volume and it does not get too hot. But it is not 114 degrees yet like it will be in the summer.

We're all in it together with these Scramblers. So much great work by everyone in this forum. I need to get my final Phase 1 list done and get this thing out on the trails. It is going to be a great Spring out here. Need to take advantage of it before everything dries out and fire season...

Both are great ideas @bigwalton! I can easily tap into an always hot wire and add an LED light and a lid switch. Open the lid, the light goes on. I'm going to add that to the list.

Here it is all closed up and locked: Here is the wire loom running from the dash to the console. This has all the wires: painless harness radio related wires, speakers, 8AWG power, 12AWG power, microphone wire if I want to put a cell phone microphone in the dash later. Drilled a hole and...

I have tunes now! I wanted to keep the stereo in the Tuffy Center Console. And I wanted to get a decently powerful amp - enough that with the right speakers, I would not have to run a subwoofer. Here is what I used: Fusion MS-RA70 Marine digital media receiver with Bluetooth Kenwood...

Sweet! I've never sat in suspension seats. Let us know how they compare comfort wise. I'm considering some for "Phase 2" of my project in 2024.

I think they closed a long time ago. I bought my tank in 1998. Mine is the steel version with the extra skid plate welded on.

Nice. Post an update when you get to that point. My TrailQuest tank has taken a real beating. Mostly on the Rubicon and at Moab. The tabs were bent and a few small dents in the bottom. During my rebuild, I cut the tabs off and rewelded thicker ones an inch lower. That gave me an extra inch of...

@83CJ-8 Is that a TrailQuest fuel tank? (23 gal) It looks like the one I have. I too am frustrated with the fuel gage not working well. Let us know how that works out! My tank is 13" high.

Beauty!

Bad ass! :)

That's the red box in the middle. It is a Redarc BCDC1225D Battery Charger. https://www.redarcelectronics.com/us/dual-input-25a-in-vehicle-dc-battery-charger It manages the second battery. I used to have just a solenoid that would connect both batteries when the engine is running and...

Here we go:
