Super cool 200! I work in Madison and have a 100 and a 40 series. It’s nice to see Landcruisers in Wisconsin! I’ll keep an eye out for it.

Good question.Fellow WI here, Oshkosh. There are a bunch of us in this area. I have lost track of how many I have owned at this point. We have a guy that does great work here so I think that helps with having a bunch of Land Cruisers here.
Where are you taking that monster? Colorado etc. We drive the forest roads up north sometimes but otherwise it is just pavement princess.
Very good question.@varun bhargava I'm liking the looks of your truck! I have been doing some homework on the SwitchPro and from what I've read, SP recommends connecting loads directly to the wire harness and not through a bus bar/fuse box. They say all this is already built into the unit. These extra connections are also additional failure points. I'm curious as to your thoughts on that? Again, the truck looks great!
Let there be light!!!
Installed KC Cyclone v2 lights under the hood over the weekend. It was a good first step in building a wiring harness, running cable and making sure its protected from the elements and vibrations.

Next up: Wiring all of the STEDI camping lights that are attached to the roof rack. With a few small mods I was able to easily install lights for the rear too.

Nice clean install!Learned how to make battery cables and finished up the AUX main fuse block and routing of cables around the battery. The red fuse block is designed to be leveraged for a full dual battery setup including a SBI, Redarc BCDC, rear aux fuse block and a couple of extras. I'm debating moving the winch to the fuse block but the amp rating is pretty high (400A) and will max out the fuse.

Great idea! I have one from the Switch-Pros kit.Nice clean install!
I seem to recall winches are supposed to be run directly to the battery...
Maybe consider a rubber or silicone boot for the exposed 12v lug on your switchpros? A shorted out tool will turn into a welder (don't ask how I know...).
Thanks man. Its been pretty low effort thus far but I imagine to reach the next level like the @Eric Sarjeant's work is 5x more effort.Daang! This is a work of art!
If my bumper ever gets here I’ll be running my winch behind a fuse and a switched relay.I seem to recall winches are supposed to be run directly to the battery...
