You guys are the best! Thank you for your content! I wish I were closer to you and could have you help me with me build hands on!!!

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks again Del. Where are you located? Jerry

[@andrewpate9157]

Haha!! Jerry said he liked to do #2. Great video thanks

[@UglyTruckExperience]

🤣🤣 I wondered if anyone would catch that! Thanks for tuning in, Andrew! --Emily

[@isaiahlyons6137]

@uglytruckexperiece thank you all so much for being so informative about wiring these old trucks up y’all helped me a lot

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks Isaiah! We appreciate you watching our stuff!

Thanks for running this topic. It took a while, but it finally dawned on me that the blower motor circuit was speshull and was not powered by the fuse panel in the cab. Now I get why you showed so much concern about circuit protection for the blower motor wiring. For information purposes, back in the donor vehicle, Stud/Lug #2 supplies power to the wire going through the firewall and terminates next to the Instrument Panel Relay Panel and does... nothing; it's just a HOAT wire that's there in case you want to put in a trailer brake controller, etc. Also there are the trailer Stop Light and the Trailer Park Lights, but not to worry; they're fused.(eyeroll at HOAT "blunt cut" wires under the dash) Stud/Lug #1 simply goes back to the trailer lights connector at the back, next to the hitch receiver. Somehow sanity prevailed and there is no power on this wire; there is a red plastic block there instead of a fuse. As always, informative and fun to watch.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Great info, Rick! We appreciate you tuning in!

Currently in process of doin ls swap in my 84 k10 that’s been converted to 3/4 ton and nv4500 swap. This video helped out a bit to get supplied power to the blower since I did eliminate the junction block from firewall. Niw I need to get in there and figure out the a/c circuit when I get to putting a/c back in. I seen there are some wires that were not needed in the older circuit trucks (I.e green smaller pink brown and so on. I understand I’m just trying to get it to run but also like many others I’m adding a bunch led lighting and upgraded horns daytime running lights and so on. I’m basically building my dream truck in an old body.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks for watching Jason. We have some videos that talk about the AC and also the headlamps. Sounds like you are going to have a great truck. Jerry and Emily

My wife's turn signal uses a lot of accumulated amps. I think it has more mileage than her car. Gotta love her.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

🤣🤣 Thanks for tuning in, Dan!

[@GrandPitoVic]

I love that crimping tool!!!!

[@UglyTruckExperience]

It's an Amazon special, but it works great! Here's a link if you're interested. amzn.to/3SQLrPQ Thanks for tuning in, Hugh!

[@GrandPitoVic]

Definitely, Thank you!!!!!

[@DE-ok4ld]

Thank you for the video! your timing couldn't be better for me as I am getting ready to do a fusible link to my blower motor. For some reason I knew I wasn't suppose to connect it directly to the battery!

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Good call! Those babies take a lot of juice! 😆 Thanks for watching, DE!

[@jonvasquez4729]

Hey! That’s my name! Thanks for the mention!! I’ll make you famous….BTK

[@UglyTruckExperience]

For a minute, we thought you were talking about the BTK killer...I was a little nervous! 🤣🤣 Gonna have to watch Young Guns tonight! Thanks for tuning in, Jon!

[@robertsmith4654]

I really like the way you do your videos it's so well explained. Thank you. I've been working on my swap. Need some pointers. Thanks in advance. I'm putting a 02 6.0 vortec truck motor in my 99 jeep cherokee. Would it be easier to use both fuse boxes or just run everything over to the doner fuse box? I'm trying to keep all my factory gauges.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hey Robert. If I was doing that swap, I would keep both of the boxes to begin with. Once you have it up and running, I would start to eliminate some of the circuits that we're in the original jeep box. The 2002 box is easier to run the headlamps from and wouldn't be surprised if some of the other circuits would be fairly simple. I would just do it in steps with the goal to eliminate as much of the 99 box as possible. Hope that makes sense. Keep us posted. Sounds like a great swap. Jerry and Emily

[@papergatorzfedducca7998]

Do you guys have a video on how you moved the battery box?

[@UglyTruckExperience]

We don't, but it's on our to-do list! We'll be sure to show the next one we do. Thanks Papergatorz!

[@frankgonzalez6872]

Jerry, just letting you know that the check valves from evel energy didn’t work for very long. I ended up using some from fuel lab they hold high pressure and high flow thanks for everything

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hi Frank. Thanks for letting me know. We'll keep that in mind. We've had good luck with the Fuel Lab stuff too. Thanks again. Jerry

[@Marc_Wolfe]

* ...long inhale... * NERRRRRRRDS!... Don't mind me, I'm just a bit jealous.

[@UglyTruckExperience]

🤣🤓🤓 Guilty as charged! Thanks for tuning in, Marc!

[@brendanchambers2794]

Thanks for this video cleared up alot of questions I had! I would love to see how you guys do the driver side battery tray do you have a video on that already ? I used a 05 Tahoe for a donor and kept the battery tray out of it just doesn’t seem to be a good way to mount thanks again .

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks Brendan! We don't have a video on the battery tray yet, but we'll put it on our to-do list! Thanks for tuning in! --Emily and Jerry

[@netster7601]

well hello there 😊

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hi Alonso!

[@paddymckendry6049]

Was the connector you plugged into the fuse for the blower motor from the donor tahoe or did you buy it online? If you bought it online can you share the link? I posted a question about fusable links on your FB page and this video is so helpful. I think Ill be able to do my first startup test on my 85 c10 this weekend because of this video! Thanks so much

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hey Paddy! We saved that little connector from the donor. I tried looking online and didn't see much for sale, but it's a Delphi (Aptiv) 15393171. You may be able to find one through Ebay or a salvage yard. It's connector 7 on the wiring diagrams. Hope this helps!

[@paddymckendry6049]

Thanks. I saved every connector from the donor just for this reason 😂. Ill dig in my pile and find it

[@bernandoturner4840]

Heyyyyyyy my❤ 👫 favorite Truck builders on KZbin..I took out A Fuse to cut off My Running lights.! It turned off AC & everything Else.. i had to take it back to the dealer & let them fix it.! They told me dont be taking anymore fuses out...I cant work on Cars, i make the issue worst. But be doing ok' yall have the Know how..👻😄✌🏾

[@UglyTruckExperience]

We're not allowed to play favorites, but we always look forward to your comments, Bernando! 😁😁 Thanks for tuning in! --Emily and Jerry

[@bernandoturner4840]

@@UglyTruckExperience we ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️you 👫.. yall know how to fix trucks & make them run..With great Videos to learn from.. waiting on the next one.. Thankyou👫😄✌🏾

[@GrandPitoVic]

3,2,1 BLEEDING!!!!! Dam am I working on that truck? ROFLMFAO

[@UglyTruckExperience]

He was bleeding before we even started! 🤣

[@GrandPitoVic]

ROFLMFAO!!!!!!!

[@delcampbell9246]

I'm running a Holley Term X Ecu. Can the wiring you do with a donor fuse box , relays etc be used with an aftermarket ECU?

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hey Del. Absolutely. If I was running that setup, that is exactly what I would do. The 2002 and earlier boxes are a little more user friendly when It comes to wiring other things that you might want from the box like headlights for example. We appreciate you watching and thanks for your comments. Jerry

[@Fahrenheit_Motorsports]

If you run a fusible link larger than the recommended 4 sizes does it negate its ability to work? On my power wire to lug #2 I’ve used an extra 8awg fusible link that I pulled off an extra alternator circuit. (The red box with the blk fusible link)

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Hey Tony. If your using lug #2 you will have a fuse protecting that circuit, so it wouldn't really matter. That large fusible link will carry that circuit with no problems and not really act as a fuse but won't hurt anything. Jerry

[@Fahrenheit_Motorsports]

@@UglyTruckExperience excellent! Thank you, Jerry!

[@bobbywells8408]

Yall so funny 😁

[@UglyTruckExperience]

😁 Thanks Bobby!

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Thanks Anthony!

[@GrandPitoVic]

But if you go 4 down wouldn't it be 8??? JUST KIDDIN JUST KIDDING ROFLMFAO!!!!! I know someone is going to ask. They won't understand the numbers go the other way ROFLMFAO!

[@UglyTruckExperience]

Seriously! How complicated can they make it!! 🤣

I know right? ROFLMFAO!!!!!
