Fuse box & higher amps
Hello Digesters-
I am about to start adding electric accessories to my '79 Scout (radio, cb,
fog lights, etc.). I want most circuits switched but also want some with
constant power. I was thinking it might be a cleaner installation and
easier in the long run if I just add a new/additional fuse box (maybe in my
glove box). Does anyone have any insight in this. How do I supply power
to the new fuse cluster? Where is a good place to buy a new fuse box?
Anything else I should know?
Also, I am adding a 94 amp alternator. Will my old wires handle the new
high juice running through them. Is there anything I should do to make
sure I don't fry something? I've heard it may be a good idea to run larger
wire to/from starter, bulkhead connector, etc. Is this correct?
TIA,
Skip
P.S. Had to get a tetanus shot (last one was 10 yrs ago) this weekend due
to the cuts/scraps I received while removing the P/S. Does this mean I am
now officially a TRUE Scout owner : ) Seems I remember talk of this at
Charlotte (Epp).
