dash at the end of the weekend...still a couple of bugs to work out but everything is connected and for the most part doing what it's supposed to..	Dash at the beginning of the 4th of July weekend..	New House battery disconnect switch also breaks the ground connection, there was lots of unused space under the seat and it's easy to get to. All of the switches are the same Blue Sea 9003e, they'll support 48v/350amps continuous with the intermittent rating more than triple that.	New Chassis battery disconnect switch, breaks the ground connection to isolate them.
New "Booster Switch" this connects the Chassis batteries to the House batteries.	Broke out my new hydraulic crimper and got busy; house batteries fully wired and connected...leads from the batteries to the inverter are 4/0 and were a SOB to route!	Passenger front complete, new upper shock mount had to be made for relocation, lower is the factory mount re-positioned and reinforced.	There were a lot of backside welds that you can't access, that's why I had to step it out a couple inches and use a combination of mechanical and welded joints.
Fabrication complete on the passenger front. you can see the old upper shock mount behind the new structure, I was able to weld them together to further increase rigidity.	this is inside at the top of the wheel well and attaches to the top of the upper air bag mount spreading the load and reducing any transverse movement.	Passenger front air bag upper mount in work, cleaning the under coating off was the worse part of this..	Coat of paint and airbag installed, I'll wait until I compress the suspension to attach the bottom of the airbag.
