How To Install an INVERTER ‘STEP BY STEP’ in a semi truck

[@motorvaderlapstrake7238]

I appreciate you doing this video and passing on this info, but I have to try and give you this piece of advice. Running the positive wire from your battery through a jagged sharp-edged hole in your floorboards is a recipe for disaster. Use a step drill bit to drill the hole and then put a rubber grommet in the hole to protect the + wire. Both items are available from any Harbor Freight store. Good luck trucking!

[@FreewayHustlin]

Thank you driver

[@NoNews8241]

Wow, this is the best feedback. Thank you

[@Deetruckin]

Definitely appreciate this. I’m goin to look for me an inverter tomorrow before the road. Hopefully I’ll be able to run the small projector and ps4 at the same time

[@nonyun8784]

A breaker & direct access to fuses are a must!!

[@MuhammadsSon]

Thank you Driver! Definitely doing this own my own for my truck!

[@resourcefulreina2273]

The best easy video thanks 🙏 I’ll needed this on my truck

[@nathankelly2796]

Installing one on my first truck tomorrow. Thanks brother!

[@FreewayHustlin]

Good luck!

[@DavidMontero-q3g]

nice job because it helped me install my inverter THANKS BRO

[@roddyrod4922]

Anyone watching this. Rule of thumb with any electrical inside of a vehicle. Hook up ground wire first also protect your red power wire especially from the inside of that sharp hole. If it rubs through it could cause a fire. Also keep fuse as close to battery as possible.

[@Bombon_909]

Yea ur right lol Do u really need a fuse for an Inverter???

[@roddyrod4922]

@@Bombon_909 yes. If you don't you could start a whole fire. It's still a moving vehicle. If you wreck or something it could damage the power wire and the fuse would pop before it becomes a fire hazard

[@jonathancunningham5875]

Thanks Driver! Stay safe out there

[@dontek3116]

Thanks for the info hard to find someone to put those things in your truck

[@mrstealth777]

Very helpful, buying food on the food is not only expensive but also unhealthy. An inverter can saves 100s on food on the road monthly. Safe out there 🛻

[@iampurehell]

Great video bruh. Definitely needed to see exactly how cuz semis are different than cars lol

[@FreewayHustlin]

Glad I could help

[@johnantolik3389]

I hope you have good Insurance.! That Red cable will definitely wear through n cause a 🔥. There are SPECIAL cable guards for when you drill holes through the floor

[@therainmaka6455]

Thanks you for taking your time to show the process. Appreciate it 🙌🏾

[@FreewayHustlin]

No problem 👍

[@Preppyandrea_luvsfood]

Good work!

[@tuandriverga]

Bro is the man. Thanks you 👍

[@FreewayHustlin]

No problem 👍

[@c_fiddy7118]

Appreciate u, u the only one I came across that talked about getting additional wires. Because where I bought my inverter from doesn’t say in description how long the wires are that come with it. 👍🏽

[@FreewayHustlin]

Glad I could help

[@Discipline789]

Thanks for this video! Life saver 🙌

[@FreewayHustlin]

Happy to help!

[@Deetruckin]

… we are good to go. I didn’t even have to drill wholes in the floor. There were two bolts in the floor that served no purpose so I removed them and my cables whet right through. I believe they were made just for that cause they weren’t connected to anything. Jus 2 random bolts

[@FreewayHustlin]

Glad it worked out for you

[@Deetruckin]

@@FreewayHustlin appreciate your video.

[@jermaine_street_]

The best inverter installation. Thanks! 👊🏾

[@FreewayHustlin]

Glad I was able to help! 🙏

[@lohanhillton214]

You don’t have to run the negative cable from the battery ! Just connect it to any bolt

[@daverastransportation-eb4oy]

You're welcome

[@jasonwhite1738]

Thanks for the video bro, im gonna do this now so it gave me idea how to start

[@nonyun8784]

Key safety info missing..voltage of inverter vs voltage that the truck batts pushes out..what gauge size?? Hooking up a 12v inverter which most are to a truck the poses 14v will cause a smokie situation on contact..potential fire

[@juanrivero1678]

Great job brother thanks

[@mbahcollins7228]

Nice one

[@HVYW8Gaming]

Do I need the black box?

[@FreewayHustlin]

Your don’t need it but it is recommended. It’s a safety issue. If it happens to over heat for any reason that will go off and shut down to prevent a fire. It’s only $20 on Amazon and it’s called a circuit breaker

[@HVYW8Gaming]

@@FreewayHustlin yea I realized I’m otr a lot I’m going get it but i went ahead and installers without for time being appreciate the easy fix man

Did your inverter came with an earth wire ? to what did you connect it to ?

[@soulcut5736]

Ground to frame

Damn harbor freight I also bought the 3ft cable had to go back also

[@SuperTexasking]

Where did you get the circuit from.

[@FreewayHustlin]

Amazon. I put a link in description

[@robertratcliff2441]

Need link for Circuit breaker

[@philipdru9290]

Good stuff!

[@FreewayHustlin]

Thanks!

[@jayrau9875]

Question where can I buy the cut off switch? I didn’t find it at harbor freight

[@FreewayHustlin]

its in the video description

[@arthurronaldo2137]

How many battery you used ?

[@FreewayHustlin]

There’s usually 3 or 4 batteries in these trucks but I only used 1 for the inverter

[@davidprock904]

Mine didnt come with a breaker, was it supposed to?

[@FreewayHustlin]

No they don’t come with one. I have a link in the video description for the correct one to use

[@davidprock904]

@@FreewayHustlin i have the white one (not yellow) 1000W (2000W peak) pure signwave

[@wesaamerimia5696]

Call of that piece of BLACKPINK the way you connect to read in it

[@FreewayHustlin]

its called a circuit breaker

[@arthurronaldo2137]

The battery not gonna 🪫 ?

[@FreewayHustlin]

No. But if you leave your refrigerator running for 3 or 4 days without starting the truck then it will drain the batteries and you will need a jumpstart. I recommend just shutting everything off if your going to be gone for more than 3 days

[@yogipromotions8704]

Where did you buy it?

[@FreewayHustlin]

It’s in the links in the description

[@alikhangreen5477]

How long will it power fridge if the truck is not running

[@FreewayHustlin]

Depends on the batteries, but from my experience usually 2 or 3 days.. it will drain the batteries and you will need to jumpstart the truck

[@ItsaFuckingElephant]

I need to install one but I’m using a Ryder rental and can’t drill holes. Is there a way to install it without the holes? What would you recommend

[@FreewayHustlin]

This is difficult to do. You can get smaller inverter that hooks to lighter plug can run smaller electronics. There’s coolers that connect to the lighter as well, serves as a small fridge

[@aowens7035]

Mybe pull back the rubber flooring or carpet in one of back corners behind seats like the guy did in the video but pull back floor material first and drill hole underneath the carpet or rubber flooring and run cables through and when you give the truck back just take ALL the cables out and tuck floor material back down in place it will look like factor again

[@jojoekwakwa7865]

I didn’t see you touch the ground terminal to make connection can you tell me why

[@Loyalteelogistics]

What gauge wire did you use

[@FreewayHustlin]

4 gage wire, its in the video description

[@JoeGriffin-l4u]

I'm video u said 2guage but in a reply u said 4 guage

[@theresawilltheresisaway.290]

Thanks

[@FreewayHustlin]

no problem

[@OtrRalo]

So does the inverter work while the truck is off?

[@FreewayHustlin]

Yes it will power small devices like phones, tablets etc.. and a refrigerator for 2 or 3 days. But will need to power truck on to use a microwave or cooking appliances

[@christopherlewis1017]

I kno this vid old but why didn’t you just drill a bigger hole in the terminals instead of buying new ones

[@ProsperMike27]
