LOL, no, I don’t think we do need that monster. But @, if I remember less than $500.00 OTD with synthetic line, and wireless remote it was hard to pass up. Now that said, I’m having the same issue and in the process of shrinking the contro box I found the “wireless” receiver box was not secured and was bouncing around loose. Looked like an afterthought as the the wiring was a mess. I contacted HF about the loose black box & they told me there was no black box as there was nothing like that in the wiring diagram they had. Sent them photos & they said “we will get back to you”, yep, been 6-8 weeks and crickets, but in this heat I’m in no hurry with no AC in my shop/garage.
I’m trying to do a stealth mount using the plastic facia until my bumper gets built, seems if it ever will happen.....? If I can’t shrink the relay box enough to mount on top of the OEM fuse box I’ll make another box that will. There’s plenty room @ factory airbox area, but I’ve seen the damage a K&N type to my MX and desert racing 2 cycles cylinders & crankshafts, and at time, that was my profession and if I blew up I didn’t eat that week. LOL, I did slap this together with some gusseting added under & behind the “crumble crash” bumper so at least I can drive it while I waiting on the bumper. I don’t want to trash the stock plastic & think it can be done with minimal cutting.
