[QUOTE="Adrenlin, post: 1799261, member: 51757"] [FONT=Calibri]I continued the three other wires towards the front bringing them out of the frame rail at the fenderwell. I used wiring loom to protect the wires, and routed them up and into the engine compartment. See Figure 7. Once in the engine compartment, I tied the extended purple wire into the wire for upfitter #6, and connected the fuseblocks back to the two red main power lines for the compressor. Then I disconnected the negative battery terminal, and connected the fuseblocks to the battery reconnecting the battery once I had everything secured. One other consideration I had was with the clamps that held the bed cover rails in place. Clearance was pretty tight between the Builtright panel and the clamps, even after repositioning the clamps. The clamps wanted to sit at a slight angle, due to the bulge in the side of the bed. So I slightly ground down the back side of the clamps with a belt sander, which allowed them to fit flush. See Figure 9 and Figure 10. Hopefully this will prove useful to anyone else looking at installing an ARB Compressor. Following the directions, especially in regards to the wiring can be a little daunting upon first glance. However, it's not as complex as it first appears. Simply take your time, and you'll be fine.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
