Yes Steve I woukd be interested especially how and where he mounted it

Yea frontys have a ton of extra room under the bed, we are not as lucky.

We've got a pretty good amount of space with the spare tire removed, don't we? 


Terry, I'll try to get a pic or two.

Yes I have.   Are you aware of any that are small enough but provide enough output?

it doesn't take much to maintain a battery, you'll need a solar controller to not overcharge the battery.
Some of the guys at OAUSA have solar setups that are pretty sweet.

Wow Steve just had to revisit the issue.   Please if you can get me some pics because I think I know what he did.   I'll be he welded two lengths of angle between the frame rails and with cross support you could hang batteries, OBA.   But if you could confirm I would really appreciate it

Thanks Steve.  I appreciate all your efforts.

Hey Terry, I just read your entire build up thread and I really couldn't believe how much work you put into your truck.  That's quite impressive.  Did you end up using RCV Performance axles?

Yes sir I installed the first pair of RCV Half Shafts for the R180 and have been a good proving ground for them.  Tried to take them back to the Rubicon (where I broke two half shafts the first time) but a fire stopped me.  But trust me I will get back soon to test these puppies out.

Thanks to my younger brother and Toro(Who so artfully built the battery box).   I finally got my auxiliary battery installed.   I think it worked out very well.
