Any suggestions on where to find a good rotary switch, cat-5 plugs, fuse block, and 12vdc relays?

sounds like a rotary switch is the say to go.

I am planning on doing a fitch box to hold the relays with a cat-5 cable ran to a switch panel that had a main on-off switch and a on-on-on switch to turn on 3 different color led lights that I don't want on at the same time. I was thinking about a toggle or a rotary switch.

I would have a separate switch to turn the on-on-on switch on/off. I would use the on-on-on switch to turn on 3 different light configurations on but I don't want them on at the same time.

Where can I find a toggle switch that is ON-ON-ON or ON-ON-OFF-ON? Thanks

Some stuff requires less than 12V when charging so if you plan on charging stuff through the USB, check the voltages the items charge at.

Pictures?

What about a hard plastic box that is used to hold snow skis and goes on top of a car? I don't know any dimensions but you might find a used one on ebay for cheap.

That is a pretty unique mod. Just a few questions. Where do you plan on buying this? Why not just get a flip up sunroof? In the post you link to, he said he paid $500. Personally I would spend the money on something else. Just my .02 but nice post. **EDIT: I need to pick up my posting...

For that kind of money get a hand held spotlight, plug it into the cigarette lighter plug, and stick your hand out the window.

actuators aren't cheap. I did a quick google search and the around $100 for 12VDC. If you get one be sure it is rated for outdoor use. I didn't check but harbor freight might have some cheap ones.

How do you plan on making the front light bar swing down? Here is an idea. Some butterfly hinges on the bottom and an outdoor electric actuator that you use with a switch from inside the cab to lower the light bar and even aim the lights.

Just remove most of the roof and do a canvas top.:D I saw it some where on here I believe. Could be wrong. It looked like a vinyl tonneau cover but tan canvas. It would be sweet! Just need to add bracing to the roof.

Is your XJ a target for birds?

I see that the XJ is the background his leaf springs up front. Can you post some pictures of the front suspension on it? Thanks

How many gallons is that gas can? IMO the gas can carrier needs some vertical support. If it is a 5 gallon tank there is 30lbs of gas hanging out there at 6 lb/gal. Also IMO it is still going to rattle with the bolt into the nut that is welded on. nothing is keeping it from going side to side.

Just out of curiosity, what are the benefits of a leave spring front suspension?

This is quite a project if you are new to fabbing. You might want to start off a little smaller IMO.

Shouldn't they be called anti-crush sleeves because they keep you from torqueing down whenever it is and "crushing" the frame? There is my thought of the day.
