Clean Wiring installs

What are folks using to do a clean wiring install for all your accessories. I am trying to plan my build out, and want to avoid the hodgepodge I had on my last truck. Do folks prefer the painless wiring setup, extra fuse blocks, the combo fuse/relay boxes? I already did the Mike Gecko lighting package, and I know that I will wire up at least 2 more LED light bars, and a winch, and who know what afterwards. I have an SR5 with 5 blanks available in the cab, so I am not looking to do a remote panel, i was planning on using the small Toyota switches, to make it look somewhat OEM.

Thoughts and pictures would be much appreciated.

 

electrical wire, electrical wire looms, electric tape, zip ties.

how do you like the x2 power agm battery ? did you order it online ?

 

I wanted mine to look like a monkeys butt Finished at 4am this morning so truck could go back to its natural habitat, the fab shop. Have to clean it up a bit and replace crimp terminals, but they did not arrive in time.

 

SDHQ terminals ?

 

Yes sir. My + battery cable was not long enough though, had to bend it to fit.

 

Xprite 8 switch

 

I have one. It’s a beast. My truck fires immediately. I went in the store but I called first. I got an online discount and picked it up. Worth the money.

 

I’m very happy with it. I ordered it online and picked up in store. They’ve been running like 10% off online orders and rebates on occasion.

 

Got those on my truck. Highly recommend them if you are adding anything electrical. Keeps connections much cleaner

 

gotta find some #covid19projects to keep me busy...

 

Where are all the relays hiding?

the SwitchPro and the Xprite might not be on the approved purchase list from the CFO.

I was thinking more in the lines of something like this -

Boat Fuse Block W/Negative Bus, WUPP 6-Way Automotive Fuse Box Holder 30A Per Circuit with LED Warning Indicator & Durable Protection Cover for Car Marine DC 12-24V, Fuses Not Included

https://www.amazon.com/6-Way-Fuse-B...248861011&rnid=1248859011&s=automotive&sr=1-2

Could I run a fusetap tapped to an ignition-on fuse in to one of these blocks to power all the switches in the cab? -

VEEAPE 6-Way Blade Fuse Block W/Negative Bus - ATC/ATO Fuse Box Holder with Ground, Protection Cover, Bolt Connect Terminals,80 pcs Stick Label, For Vehicle Car Boat Marine Auto Yacht Bus RV

https://www.amazon.com/6-Way-Mini-B...48861011&rnid=1248859011&s=automotive&sr=1-22 or just one fuse tap and some creative wiring soldered in a line?

 

Same here. I installed VLeds puddle lights to my mirrors. Now I am getting ready to replace my cheap led strips with VLed bars, and close to pulling the trigger on the Toytec Boss setup to get rid of this damn spacer kit. I also put up 260 feet of vinyl fence....by myself.

 

I did the ToyTec Aluma series - very nice!

 

Just curious....what is that black beam for?

 

Those are the ones that I am going with, along with the resis and shackles for the rear. I already have the SPC's sitting in the garage. The ride of the Readylift 3/2 is starting to get old after a year and a half.

 

My first try was kid of a mess. A small fuse block, proper length clean wiring, crimp connections and relays in front of the battery cleaned it up pretty well.

 

I went the sPod route, highly recommend.

That's a coilover tower brace....a one off that I think he should make for more tundra owners

 

@TXTundra2722
You can buy it from @KyleGreenFabrication, have one for @papasmurf in my garage, and @831Tun getting one also

 

Don't forget tesa tape

And another Amazon box for the wife to ask me about. Ordered.

 

In front of passenger seat. Little box has six relays and fuses built in. I like it.

 

I recently installed a universal switch panel but I am having trouble powering the push button panel without being directly connected to a direct 12v source. I have tried an add a circuit but the panel is supplied with power. Any suggestions on where to wire it to turn on with IGN?

 

I really like that setup. What guage wire did you run for the bus block? Are you running your switch wiring behind the glovebox? Is that easier than the steering column?

 

I ordered mine today. I am going with the Alumas up front and the Boss rear with remote resis. I'll decide on shackles later. Two of the guys said I wont really notice a difference between shackles and the block that is already installed.

 

Thats awesome! Whats the cost for those?
