Hell yeah! It's nice to see some other people heading towards a desert racing style setup. In progress myself! Fabbin' up a really nice skid plate for the 3rd gens right now.

I just finished a custom-built accessory relay block / fuse panel / switch panel to run all the extra accessories - lights, lockers...did I mention lights? I'll post the plans if anybody wants them!

ptgarcia - I'll take some pics tomorrow. I used 10ga wire for all power leads, soldered all terminals for minimum voltage drop - especially for the longer runs for rear bumper lights, etc. The switch panel I made of aluminum sheet, brushed it with a DA sander, and clearcoated. Mounted it in the pocket below the heater controls. Looks nice, if I do say so myself. Here's a few pics of the early progress. I just haven't pulled the new pics off my camera yet.

I posted pics in a separate thread:
