PMA4x4 4 Posted June 2, 2013 Spent most of yesterday reading and trying to find some pics of a factory dual battery setup in a '87 or older truck or suburban (non specific). I chose 87 or older as dual batteries seemed more popular then. I have a 1991 1500 Suburban and I have two raised molded bosses on top of my fan shroud. I suspect they are there for a reason. Ignore the yellow loom wiring, that's temporary until i can figure this out. I am wondering if the cable went over the shroud loomed and mounted via those bosses to keep them secure. Thoughts?

PMA4x4 4 Posted June 2, 2013 The bulbs came with the lenses. I will eventually change over to LED but I wanna do it all in one shot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PMA4x4 4 Posted June 4, 2013 Some of the wiring begins. Dual battery frame build I started with pulling the factory jack and removed the washer bottle. I then noticed the charcoal can was siting too high. In the midst of trying to find a new spot for the can I noticed it had two other holes. and its like a lowering option. it dropped it more then enough to keep it in the same spot. Let the the fabbing begin! Canister int eh lower position. Im using the artec Industries Dual Odyssey PC1500 bracket. The eight holes are already there from Artec.

PMA4x4 4 Posted June 4, 2013 A lot of bubble gum and magnets to hold it in place while I measure and figure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PMA4x4 4 Posted June 4, 2013 Its just sitting in there but right its a 1/4" high as its sitting on bolt heads and nut flush cap screws. There is also another 1.5" before it hits hood plus I am going to have some good terminal covers on there so I am not worried about grounding out the positive terminal.
