    Also a good point, most of my wheeling trips would be that way. I'll probably go the tool box in the bed route then

    Ive looked at my double cab and thought that the wheel wells could be chops up to make platforms perhaps to hide the dual batteries since in our beds the wheel wells extend so far. So like cutting a door into the wheel well and making a platform for the battery perhaps. Idk if it will work, haven't done the measuring and i have tiny tires on Igor haha

    I thought about that, between the cab and the wheel well, but I didn't look very hard at it. Also if I ever went 35s then it could be an issue. It's a great idea though. I was thinking of a wheel well tool box but a battery probably wouldn't fit.

    They might. but you'd be giving up a serious amount of bed space.

    Yea 35s may not like that. Have to check it. But worth looking at.

    I made a small battery mount and have another yellow top on the passenger side. Both batteries are group 34/78.

    Let me know when you start seriously deciding on what todo. Could drive my truck up there. (Pretty sure your still in hanover right?)

    New Oxford, but yes the Hanover area. I'm gonna think on it, I have an arb compressor to put somewhere too. It wouldn't hurt to take a peek and see how you did it though. Are you going to the Toyota takeover

    I'd like to take a look at that setup too. I really dug the under battery tray someone made under the bed by spare tire carrier though.

    Hard to say ATM. We're extremely busy at work. So I have a feeling we'll be working mandatory Saturdays this summer
