auxiliary fuse block mounts

[hogshooter]

Are there any out there for the 4th gen yet? I've looked high and low and haven't found one.

What's wrong with a generic fuse block? Something like a Blue Sea 5025 or 5028.

yes, but I'm asking about a bracket to mount a Blue Sea, circuit breaker, and solenoids onto.

Sorry, I missed that in the first post.

I know you want something fancier than my solution but I'm perfectly happy with just mounting the fuse block to the top of the fuse box cover next to the battery. Plenty of clearance and I left enough room to still be able to fold the lid back when necessary to get at the underlying fuses.

What's that block on your positive battery terminal? That looks useful.

Good question. It's just a dual terminal fuse block. I think maybe I got it at Autozone? One side is a 125 amp fuse and the other side 250 amp. That's from memory, I could be wrong. You can replace the fuses w/whatever size you want though. I can't find the exact product but it's effectively this.

I've got a 3D model I've printed and mounted between the driver's side fuse panel and that control module in the engine bay. Screws down into the factory threaded holes. Happy to send the file if you have access to a printer or a friend with one.

worked for my fuse block, but it's a pretty simple model to remix if you need for something larger or more precise.

I printed in ASA, no issues after a few weeks/a cold snap and some drives through the mountains in BC

Thanks for posting. Which block is it designed for?

It was designed for this https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0CP56SXNT?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

but it's a little wide and the fit isnt exact. I had originally designed some larger tabs to clamp it into place but they were warping too much during the print so I abandoned the idea. At the moment the fuse block is being held down with some scotch extreme/3m dual lock

Thanks! that block does everything I need it to.

I usually print automotive stuff in PETG, it's plenty strong and heat resistant without the stink of ASA.
