I have my blue seas acr and am going to install it this weekend. I was thinking 2/0 size wire due to the fact I am running it back to my truck bed. Also was thinking of running the negative just to my frame with maybe like a 1 or 2 gauge wire but that's hack status so I'm gonna run it back to...

%100 percent agree on the safe install vs the potentially for draining my starting battery being stuck and having to winch myself out of a predicament. I would have a 150-175 amp breaker at the positive of each battery. Due to the run I would most likely use 1/0 at a minimum. From what I...

I mounted mine right in the back right engine bay. Shortest distance to the battery and it is pretty much wasted space.

Should 120 amp do it for a dual battery set up. Would that trip if I had to use the batteries to jump the truck? Due to it being over 300 amps? I guess how many amps does it take to start a truck?

Yes I was gonna add a breaker like I did for my fuse block. never mind I can't read

When running either system in my truck there is no need for a battery switch correct? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

i looked around the fourms, but there was no specific mention of the blue sea setup. And by the looks of it, it looks like it will be the set up that works the best for me.

So it really looks like my suspicions are confirmed. I think I will go with the one of the two blue sea options.

I have been researching and going between national luna split charge system, arkpak and this http://www.westmarine.com/buy/blue-sea-systems---add-a-battery-dual-circuit-system--8646275 The benefits of the national luna is obvious with its ability to monitor the battiers, but around $400 The...

I would second that, we use synthetic line on our winches on the cutter, and they are in about the worst environment ever, and they perform time and time again. I was initially put off by the "shortcomings" of synthetic line but will be changing over soon. It is just much easier to use, and...

I was searching actually on a trailer forum, and noticed in order to hook this up via the deans plug, there needs to be an battery isolator already on the vehicle?

I plan on using this basically for a dual battery system for my truck. Aside from the fact that you can't jump off it with out physically taking the battery out and doing it manually, what if any draw backs are present from using this as a dedicated second battery/fridge battery? Basically if...

I can feel that. Took my truck fully loaded with a trailer over the Rockies and through saddleback lake and cross country this summer. Was definitely feeling it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have you found the need to regear with all the added weight?

Will hefty be selling this bumper? I have looked on their website and its not listed.

I try to explain the need for quick tear down set up time, and the excuse she always gives me is, we don't camp enough for that to be an issue. I then respond with we don't do it cause its a pain in the ***, women........

hahahahahahahhah :********:

I am at a cross road. With my work schedule I need the ability to literally get home from work and turn around and go explore. Especially now being stationed on the east coast, that is even more of a requirement. I feel at this point that a sportsmobile is the only vehicle that would let me...

Do you have a winch as well as a bumper? When I removed the sway bar, the extra weight of my winch and arb even with the HD springs was just too much, and made for to vague of a feeling when driving down the road.

I was over on the Olympic peninsula for 2 years, how did we not run into each other, I have literally been to the same places you have, multiple times.
