let's see, there's only a few i'm proud of. so i thought my truss was pretty cool looking. and my skid plate works pretty well, and it does not interfere with getting the transmission mount out.

I'm guessing so he doesn't have to run separate power wires.

One Power wire and one ground for the lights within the switches. That's a good idea as long as he's running relays for whatever he's powering.

How does that work? I mean, if all the positives are with one wire, how does it determine which switch works which light?
