2nd Gen OR Second Battery Mount

Did you ever figure out a set up for second gen TRD off road’s?

 

still in for just the lower plate......I need it for another project....

 

hey @Iggy can we get a progress update? I think we all understand your busy with the campers, just want to make sure we haven't been forgotten.

 

??????????

 

i am triying to put a tank in the same location as yours, which bracket you used to install it?

 

It was a random piece of powdercoated steel my dad found. The below pic I stole from @Gaunt596 , but I added the circles. Drilled holes in the plate to match up with the red threaded posts and bolted it down. Bent another piece of metal into a Z shape to bolt to the blue circled post then bolted the other end to the bottom of the plate. Super simple and hasn't budged.

 

Looks like you were forgotten

 

yup. ive since gone with another solution, but ill still be in for a tray if they ever see production again.

 

Looks like I am too late for this. I would like to buy one of these plates, but looks like the six have been chosen.
Im never one of the chosen ones.


But anyways, if anymore of these get produced, please keep me in mind.

 

these are sick, nice work!

 

Did you ever come up with a relocation bracket for the 2012+ ?

 

Mine is for sale, Has the bussman relay panel and breaker box.... Will also include inline fuse I used when I had it installed. (Sold Tacoma, doesn't fit new vehicle) $170 Shipped.

 

PM'd you!

 

Did someone beat me by 4 min?

 

Everytime this thread is bumped I get a bit sadder than before due to pending disappointment. You quick draw post broke my heart now it's broken for you..... Iggy help our wounded souls

 

I'm pretty sure Iggy moved on, and I'm thinking the rest of us probably should, too...

just put an air compressor over there instead!

 

Haha! I haven't moved on just been slammed on getting these wrapped up. I promise I'll work on these over the 4th holiday.

 

Ok guys, got a few minutes to work on it today. I updated some of the mounting components. I think what I want to do is move the top tie down, right now it's across the long end and I want to move it to the short side (between the posts). Hopefully I can figure that this weekend. Here are pics of the progress.

 

Hey Iggy, will this hold a standard group 27 battery or is it optima specific?

 

For the 27 yes. If you look at the attached photo, there is slight cutout for one of the "cells" at the exact same spot there is a giant wire look in the tacos. If you use a square battery the loom doesn't let you mount a 27, it's almost like the optima was meant for it. A 34 will fit no problem of any brand.
