What did you do to your Trailboss today? 🛠️

decide whether I want the light bar set to my high beams or fog light button so I don't have to add a switch inside.

That might not work without adding a relay to power them. The electronics are sensitive to over loads. When I added extra cube lights for backup lights on my truck, it overloaded the circuit. The lights would come on, flash 3 times then go off. I had to run them off a relay with the reverse light wire as a trigger for the relay.
 
Can anyone remind me what the preferred "IGN ON" fuse location is for adding additional exterior lighting ? i cannot recall the exact, but i want to say fuse 42 ???
looking for a location with IGN power to add some switched lighting

awaiting on the LTW motorsports FOG light kit to arrive...the clear will be wired to stock harness, the amber i want to add to a switch from an IGN ON source.
 
Installed the Boost Auto Fog light mod, simple to install the video description was exceptional in identifying the correct wires for the resistor install. Highly recommend it and them.

i have seen there jumper, not looking for the ALL ON Mod...although a great mod. I am referring to an under hood fuse location that is IGN ON power to add a relay / switch for additional lighting. the stock fog circuit will handle 1 set of the Baja Design lights, but not 2.

i will locate one, just havent had time to study the terminals or chase wiring diagrams

Fuses and Relays are described in the Owner's Manual, and for 2021 TB that's pages 353 - 360. Under the Hood there is a Fuse #40 labeled "Misc ignition."

In order to avoid running wires through the Firewall, I found 12V Power circuits available in both the Left and Right side Interior Fuse Boxes. So for my CB radio and Exterior Lights on the roof, I tapped into these interior fuse box circuits using a "Mini Fuse Tap" available on Amazon. And then I just use dedicated switches for controlling ON/OFF.

I am a disabled veteran, retired, and we live remote and this is our only transport so we are pretty happy. I had a Honda Ridgeline that would do pretty well but ground clearance would have it sitting and spinning all 4. This pig just grunts down, slight slip and pulls. I have never pushed that much snow on nose and was able to keep moving. Everyone up here loves their Jeeps but no normal stock Jeep would have made it through my drive yesterday. Our roads up here aren't plowed until snow stops, so no snow removal yesterday. My circular drive goes right into road and we are at the end of a 1/4 mile road that will be plowed today. Getting out can be difficult just from the drive when you have 3' of snow out there and its -10F which it was this AM. High today of 12F.
I am also a retired veteran and disabled. Thank you for your dedication and service.

Correct I was going to follow what this guy did adding a relay in as well. Thanks though!

 
Installed the manual EGR roll trac tonneau cover. Love this thing. Install is long and it helps if you have two people to lift it on the truck. This cover can be locked and is super secure.

SST +2" kit.

trimmed the mudflaps, removed the bracket from the back, cut bottom half of the front liner bracket, tucked the liner forward.
Any pics to share of the liner modification? I am looking for ideas before i break out the small sledge lol
 
Baja Designs fog light upgrade. Ambers are on factory fog switch. Whites are tied into my high beam. Big upgrade visibility wise!
