I just hooked up a Rigid Triple light kit.

I used lines 3, 4, and 5 (uplifters).

I thought I could cut the relay/fuse out of each of the 3 harnesses and wire directly to each uplifter line.

I did that, and connected the black/red line to a grounding point. Each light pair works individually, though they might seem a bit faint. When I turn all 3 on at once, the spots don’t come one (they are the highest amp draw).

Should I have just ran each of the 3 lines to the battery, left the relays/in-line fuses, and spliced the uplifter to the toggle switch line that comes out of the relay?

Really did not think I needed to use those parts or hook to the battery directly.

Please help me out and sorry if what I did was stupid!

Thank much guys. Would like to get these running.

running the ford raptor lights with the kc highlites and baja sport, ran the same with the harness, no relays, each on 3,4 & 5 switches and they all work fine at the same time. not sure what would cause that to not work with all of them switched on. is #3 the spots that's not working?

Correct. It works by itself though. Unreal.
