 Re: Eliminating Gatortail trim relays
The new style tiller control box use's a heavy duty rocker switch which can handle the amps that the trim will draw. Not needing the relays to handle the amps.

 Re: Eliminating Gatortail trim relays
ok, that's kinda what i figured. so then if i wanted to fab up my own box, i would just order a new heavy duty rocker switch to hold up to the old relay amp rating, which they say 30/40amp, is this wrong?

 Re: Eliminating Gatortail trim relays
Yeah you could do that. It would be the same thing ,just make sure you use a circuit breaker online with it.
