    Frenchy did you pull time out of your ass? I would like you to make three pretty pleaseee. I have a dual that's been sitting.

    If not, do you think @papasmurf could duplicate yours, @Sunnier?

    No time was acquired out of my rectum as of yet. I’ll probably get one going sometime soon. When was the last time you lifted/felt your dual ARB? I forgot how much of a boat anchor those things are!!!! Specs say 18lbs but it feels like 25!
    I’ll let you know if I come up with something

    Do you already have a switch management system or how do you plan to control your comp? That’s like the last piece of my puzzle; but I’m dreading dropping 500+ for a switch system. I built my own for the 4runner, but the truck doesn’t have a lot of useable switch locations. If I do a management system I’ve eyeballed making a bracket for under the ignition or possible sunglasses holder area, I’ve got to squeeze out a lot more time before that happens!

    Mine came with a switch and I put it under the ignition area. Plenty of room behind it for wiring.

    That’s the area I plan to build a switch panel mount for.

    Uh, I tend to mickey mouse this sort of stuff. I'm not going to spend big bucks on a switch management system either. As long as it works? :annoyed:

    This is how my ditch lights are wired currently. I'll realistically be adding four more switches down the line. I might utilize @Voss' location too.

    I don't but, if @Sunnier comes by I can take measurements and recreate them. PM me and we can discuss
