    What bracket do you have for your propane tank? Is it just sitting in there in that pic or did you mount it to the bed mat or truck bed?

    Awesome, I thought that was the seller. What AGM battery provides the best bang for the buck and also fits in the standard battery tray, and/or which battery tray is best to support this battery setup?

    I have an X2 Power 27F (NorthStar Rebranded for Batteries Plus Bulbs) NorthStar is the best battery right now period, and buying it in Blue Batteries Plus Bulbs flavor is best price and warranty, 5 years no questions asked full replacement not a prorated.

    This battery, the big three(5) upgrade and a new starter about flips my truck over when I turn the key.
