  • In this video we use our 2022 f350, with the 7.3 godzilla v8, to show how to wire up-fitter switches.
    In my videos I talk about my experience daily driving my F450. My truck has updated 6.7 Powerstroke with 1,050 LB-FT of Torque and 475hp. I also feature my 2019 F250 with the 6.2 L gas v8. Comment below and thanks for watching!

    Question is the uplifted factory grounded. Let’s say you use blue & white wire on the positive red wire like a cb radio do you need to run a ground or is it factory grounded. Thanks

      Indeed, they changed the entire electrical architecture of the truck. For example, you CANNOT remove the bed for upfit on any model except for a bare bones XL or XLT. This has caused quite a bit of grief for upfitters...flatbeds, service bodies, campers, etc.

    Twist the wires together and let the heat shrink do the rest? Sounds like fuzzy logic so I decided to use a crimp tool

    @jasonklim27 Před 10 měsíci

    Not to complain about this video it's very good for what most people want to do, but why do none of these videos on uplifter switches cover the pass through in the cab. I want to use an uplifter switch for a non powered circuit and I was told I could splice into the pass through under the dash somewhere. What I'm doing, I know is a little ridiculous but I can't stand the door open chime so I cut the wires for the switch to short out the switch to simulate the door being closed. This led to an issue because it now won't recognize the door open and shut off power to the head unit so I soldered them back together with an extra wire on each and want to run them to an uplifter switch without power so I have a door chime kill switch

      I have the pass through wires, but it seems they are output only, I am going to try to bypass the power block but I don't know if the switches will work not powered to the relay.
      May just be time to give up and use a toggle switch

      This is only for temporary use such as detailing the vehicle, hanging out at work with the door open. Last vehicle I just cut the wire and it never recognized the door being open, which led to the ignition power and head unit staying on and me killing batteries so that's why I want to do it on a switch this time
