Full Commercial Rewire on This Heavy-Duty Cattle Crate! 🚛⚡

Night hauls and rough country roads take a massive toll on stock crate electricals. We just wrapped up a complete wiring overhaul on this cattle crate! Our team stripped out brittle, corroded wiring and replaced it with heavy-duty tinned copper cabling, sealed junction boxes, and ultra-bright exterior LED work lights to make loading and unloading stock at night safer and easier.

Continuous Power for Long Trips in this Pajero 🔋🍻

Keeping the camp fridge cold without flattening the main starter battery is essential for any Pajero owner hitting the trails. For this recent project, we integrated a heavy-duty auxiliary battery system linked to a smart DC-DC charger and solar input. Now, whether parked up at camp or driving between spots, the power stays on.
