Well, I didn’t do anything with it as it was in the shop getting;
1) Method 703s in Bronze and Toyo RT Pro 35x11.5r17; (will have 5 American Racing wheels in Black and 4 BFG AT KA02 35x12.5 relatively new and one BFG used M/T up in classifieds soon)
2) new brake lines and calipers; still need center line replacement (back ordered)
3) replaced broken Warn M8000 with Warn Evo 8s; need to cut and tie in a loop at the end and ditch the hook.
4) replace a couple of KC lights with BF LP6 in Amber
5) new red shackles…
Bonus) not Series 80; but did take out the very stock (Continental “A/T” tires) 2010 FJ Cruiser on trails for the first time 10-years since I bought it. Such a fun Daily Driver and now even with tamest A/Ts .. I know it can survive on some decent trails.

I'm not the first guy to use this location, for sure. Space definitely needs to be managed in the 80 engine bay, so finding a home for the isolation relay required some creativity.
I fabricated a custom mounting plate out of some scrap 20ga plate to stack the Blue Sea ML-ACR directly on top of the factory Cruise Control actuator. It utilizes existing mounting points and keeps the high-amp cabling tight and away from heat sources.
Next up, cables in the New Year.

I mounted my BLU-ACR right behind the passenger battery, got the idea from Delta VS.
Just a word of advice, flip that 31 around so you positive is closer to the engine itself. Ask me how I know, I installed mine the same orientation as this and will be flipping it this weekend.
The breaker is no longer in this location, it is now mounted on top of the cruiser control cover.

That's a real good one. I was going to mount my light and accessory relay there, but much better to move it when I haven't cut and crimped cable . Thanks.

Why did you flip the 31? I like hav in the positive close to be the fender, where most of my distribution is and the negative by to the radiator.
There is a reason Toyota has the positive away from the fender. You might have issues with the positive arching on the hood supports.

Great catch, @OffRoadScott. That would've sucked to rotate after I had cables pulled, cut and crimped. I really appreciate it.
No worries. For reasons like this I always add a little extra for these type of issues.
3FE water pump purgatory. Can't believe how much has to come apart to get it out, 20 years of power steering gunk buildup didn't help either.
But its back together with Asin goodness and new hoses and constant tension hose clamps. It's so quiet I can now hear my rattling power steering pump at idle
