When you can get to it post some pix of your truck, plenty of interest here for dual batteries, heavy duty mods, etc.

ill post some photos soon , the dual batt is 115 ah in a batterty box hooked up to an anderson plug . so I can take it in or out . It sits in the luggage bay . The car side of things has 15mm wire with the other end of the plug going through the roof lining , down behind the dash through a gromit and connects to an isolator and then to the drive batt . the isolator odviously seperates the batts wen engine off and connects for charge when on . it has a monitor that ive put on the dash wich gives me voltage on both batts . And you can with a button hook up both batts for 15 seconds if your drive batt is flat and you start off the other battery . Very good set up that wasnt a kit . the good thing is I can take the batt out for showers etc and jump other cars if need be . Sure everyone knows this but as Im new to this forum im trying to get used to it .
