Off road light switch ? On board air compressor switch?
I'm curious about what you are going to come up with because I have Tuffy console that I haven't used but I don't care for how it's built. I keep thinking that I can rework it to something better.
I had the tuffy conse in my last one and i hated how cheap the lock mechanism was i could easily pry it open with my hands. This one it locks onto the edge of the top 3” wide. So it cant be easily pry’d open. Ill end up covering this one in fabric and build a cushion for the arm rest part as well.I'm curious about what you are going to come up with because I have Tuffy console that I haven't used but I don't care for how it's built.

Well thanks for the information about the lock. I haven't messed with this one at all. It was traded to me.
I wonder if this is the right dimensions for the switch location?

Got the main piece bent. Starting to weld it on. 
I put my arb compressor switch in there
Just trying to slam this together to make the 1300 mile drive to idaho more comfortable
Liked the way it was looking under these lights.
Well, got everything wiring wise buttoned up. Saftey Cap on breaker, inline fuse for seats. Wired in the stereo. Only issue is I don’t have any speakers. Thinking Ill just rock a BT speaker for the drive for the time being. Everything is breaking in together nicely and the more I drive it the smoother it gets. I think I will make it with very little issue.
I probably should tackle the fuel sender issue before I leave though.
Might want that...
Moving day?
Well, The way I see it is I have a toddler so we will be frequently stopping. Also, the blazer gets the same MPG as both the other rigs (4runner and Tacoma) so I think we will be fueling all the same time either way.
Gas can for safety.
And it works intermittently so I can see where I am fuel wise every once in a while lol
Wish I could juat find a pair of 6x9 speakers in boxes to have behind the seats just for the trip. Seems like those are a thing of my childhood now though.

Why not put them in the bed side pannels ?
Because I wont have the time to do it properly. We are stacking all the boxes in the garage today.
