Can I convert back of switches to blade connectors?
I recently bought a nice new set of tab switches from Dana pictured below. These are to replace my current Bennett military rocker style switches that have the male blade push on connectors. Can I purchase something like add-on right angle blade connectors to screw into the switches below so I don't have to cut and splice new connectors on all the wires? I'm not sure if such a thing even exists but I figured I'd ask and see if anyone knows of anthing I can use to convert to blade connectors. As always, thanks for the help!

Hi, thanks for your recent purchase. The switch assembly you purchased is not currently set up to operate a Bennett pump. Give us a call, your going to need some jump connectors and a wiring diagram.
You could make your own jump connectors and we can fax you the diagram, but we have some nice pre-made aluminum connectors to jump some of the terminals together.
Let me know,

the short answer is yes but you are crazy to use any sort of push on spade connectors on anything that sees shock and vibration. you will spend the rest of your life chasing loose and bad connections.

That being said, you could use ring terminal to male fast on converters, but I'd just crimp on new ring terminals and be done with it.
