OK guys - we have some very talented people here and I'm hoping to bring my wiring skills up a level.
What separates amateur wiring from a pro level? One item that comes to mind - no use of Harbor Freight connectors (which I am guilt of). What else comes to mind? |

If you are a bit detail obsessed like me, I found that brake cleaner, hard nylon brush, then a soapy water can clean up a tired existing harness pretty well. Rewrap it with new cloth tape from HD.
Also I would add new fuse terminal block to the four main high amp feed wires (10 ga. red) coming off your battery terminal block. I think the stock setup is a bit under designed in my opinion (mine was) Cheap easy insurance. |
