has anyone seen a off the shelf kit for relocating the fuse box on a CJ?

[eastryjeep]

Never seen an off the shelf solution BUT:
While trying to install a 4.0 EFI system I bridged all my old fuses with steel dowel pins, then potted the old fuse holders with sikaflex silicone sealant, so I was just left with a plain butt ugly bulkhead connector. Nothing to stop you going all Gucci with a multi pin connector from RS or Deutch though.
To protect my vehicle wiring I used the old XJ fuse box mounted from a bracket in the engine compartment, as high as I could get it behind the RH headlamp.
But to be perfectly honest I recon I could nick the Jeep easier now than before, and the fuses are only a couple of inches higher now than they were.
The flip side is that it now uses modern type fuses and I didnt have to splice the 4.0 ECU into ‘77 vintage wiring.
So my real question now would have to be: Why?

Above the fire place in the front room should keep it dry and safe

[Nosebolt]

not so much to keep em dry, more the fact that I cant see or reach em where they are, OK I know thats cos I'm a fat bastard.


saying that I have been looking at some marine fuse boxes that I could mount on the dash.

They do fuse boxes of all sorts and wire 'n' stuff.......

A thought? fuse box and all leccy stuff in place of where glove box is, might even fit behind door if you junk the fibre box cardboard thing?
did this with my allbrights and winch stuff to avoid the mud n wet

Ever thought about the resttable fuses initial cost is more but more worrying about blown fuses and no replacement. Tweeks sell fuse blocks for custom imstalls not sure on the price
