I've done a few dual battery setups before and I always just grounded them separate from the main batter. I'm not sure if there would be an advantage to running negative back to the negative of the main battery.

I'm hooking up my dual battery today and was looking for a solid ground for the accessory battery. Would the hook that's there on the engine be a solid ground? It's on an 04 4Runner.

I'll do both of those. The more clearance the better

Actually after testing it with some clay i have over an inch atleast. It looked like it would be closer than that. I will probably flip it around also though because I have the side terminals that I'd like to be able to use but with the way it is now its too close to the air box to use them if...

Good call. Don't know why I didn't think of that

Today I fabbed up a tray for a dual battery. I already had the red top sitting in the garagee. Eventually I'll replace it with a yellow top but it will be the same size. Everything seems fine but I have this worry always that the battery will touch the hood and short out. It's definitely a...

Yea u guys have good points. I think instead of messing with my suspension settings or adjustments I'm just going to cut the small area of plastic where I rub. It's a very small point and only does it at a certain angle while compressing the suspension on a side. Plus I really like how my...

Yea their the silver eibachs. Is .85 that's second notch from the bottom? I thought about the spacers though. If it's really going to strain the shocks I'd rather not risk it.

Love ur truck. Is ur roof rack open above the sunroof? If u have a sunroof. That's the one thing that bothers me about my arb rack mine has like a plate covering the sunroof.

Around 6 months ago I installed the bilstein 5100 shocks and eibach 650 coils. I called Toytec and they said to put the shocks on the second setting up from the bottom to help with the weight because I have an ARB bumper and winch also. Now I have a tiny bit of rubbing if I'm at an angle and...

Yea that definitely helps out a lot, thanks.

I'm using some of the total chaos stuff and I have been really happy with it. Just another option to think about besides the icon, but of course the icon stuff is awesome too.

Well I have a heavy tool box that is pretty big that i always keep in the truck. I've had it for years and when we had the Suburbans room was never an issue so it didn't matter what I brought for tools or that I brought a bunch of stuff I would probably never need. Now I'm really trying to...

Loved reading through this thread and I really like how ur van is coming along. I thought about going with a van like this because we always used to use suburbans for our trips but ended up going with a 4Runner and a ground tent because we were tired of having to get out to change clothes and...

Yea I'll probably take a look at the odyssey batteries, I've heard good things about them.

I built a battery tray today for an accessory battery. I built it to try and squeeze the optima red top that I got for free in there but it just won't fit. It's a about an inch too tall and an inch too wide. Anyone have any recomendations for a smaller deep cycle battery? I'm going to be...

I'll try and look up your thread and read what you did. Thanks that would be great. I have no problem drilling a hole. I can't really think of how I would run that many wires without one but a detailed post of someone else doing it would be nice. I was also thinking of getting a snorkel...

I have an 04 4runner and I just bought an arb roof rack that came with lights on top. Anyone have any ideas on how to run the wiring for the lights from the roof? I have 5 lights for the front, 2 led lights for the sides and 2 hella light for the back.

We agree. We always enjoy the expo and plan on going to it every year. It's become a staple event for us so it's never even a question wether we are going or not. About not checking for the class passes. I feel like spot checking would be enough. The way I see it if I didn't pay for the...
