I have searched on here and on google but I am not sure where the best place to buy 12VDC circut breakers is. Anybody know? I am thinking about redoing all of my wiring in my blazer just so I can "clean it up" and I would like to go with all new circut breakers and switches. I want to go with a type III and mount them into my own panel or if there is an inexpensive panel that will work I could go that route. I guess I could just install the ATC fuses into my existing panel but thats no fun. Any help would be great.
 
Go with PAINLESS wiring, they have some pretty good stuff. Ive got their 7 circuit aux fuse panel mounted in my engine bay for my aux lights and gauges, etc.

You can check summit and jegs also.
 
I bought a bunch of different potter and brumfield breakers from digikey and some other electronics placs.
They are used mostly for aircract.

Potter and Brumfield W31 series is what I have.

I re-wired my truck from scratch, every wire and terminal. My entire circuit system runs through these.

Dude you are the man. I was just wondering where I could find a wiring diagram for my K5 and wala! I am going to look it over and decide if I should rewire or just leave it all alone and carry some spare fuses. Thanks!
 
I've modified that since it's pretty much done now, but I havn't made a jpg of it yet. Almost the same, added 2 circuits, and changed a few things around, and I have diagrams of most every individual circuit.
