That is the prettiest battery switch I have ever seen.:ylsmoke:

Did you have to create a new bracket for the overflow to mount or how did you do that?

Nope, just stole the stock one. It is spot welded on so it is a pain getting it off. Then just use a big screw that will hold in the shroud and your good to go.

So far so good, everything works and nothing fried. Just remember not to throw the switch to "OFF" or it shuts off power to everything, yes which means you get to reset all of your radio stations once more

little off topic man, but having scanned your build thread, i'm trying to find out what you did with your washer fluid bottle, looks like you moved it from its stock location, but where and what did you use?? got any pics?

I had to think about that for a second, but it is still in the stock location. I think I just painted it when I undercoated the truck. It just blends in.

Yeah, got the idea from a friends dual battery in his FJ80. That friend also has way to much open space under the hood for his own good:shakin:

it blends very well- though i've noticed, most of if not all front pics of your ride are from the driver side so it was hard to get a good look at it. ever had any issues with it getting whacked by debris? i am contemplating moving mine, but looking for good locations

Is your overflow bottle, and the couple pounds of coolant inside it, hanging on the plastic fan shroud?:Wow1:

It's kind of low on coolant so it is pretty light Once I fill it up some I will check it. The shroud is pretty stout thow.
