*CLOSED* - DO NOT REPLY TO THIS THREAD: OFF-GRID ENGINEERING Dual Battery Trays & Wiring Kits

Very nice install!

About the factory cables, for those interested... There is really not a good way for me to supply a bolt-in solution for this. The factory terminals are crimped on and they are not compatible with mil-spec style terminals. My kits come with extra lugs and even an extension cable for the factory starter cable. This is so the factory cables can be modified to fit mil-spec terminals. The other option is to keep the factory cables as they are. There is no drawback to this other than not being able to extra cables to the terminals. But, in reality, this is your starting battery and won't have a lot of extra accessories added to it anyway.

 

I couldn't be happier with it and the way it came out. Thanks again to @HeliMedic for quality work and my bro @bullaculla. The factory cable terminals were easily cut with cutting pliers to fit so please don't let that dissuade you from getting this kit, it is top notch quality and Matt custom cuts each cable length for your particular needs. For example I am mounting my ACR to the factory fuse box and the cables are the exact length needed to make this happen. The two cables that run to the aux batt is spot on as it runs against the edge of the engine bay and I zip tied it to the factory harness so it looks clean.

Sweet! I'll have to get one when we get 'stage two' of the wiring planned out!
Edited to compensate for the fact I can't read! lol

 

Yep! $19.00

Also, I just updated the original post with sizes and prices

 

Okay I said I would take some more photos today and here are a few. First one is an overall pic, second is the ACR and shows the space available to mount switch pros, third pic is where I placed the ACR switch temporarily until I find a better solution.

 

Very nicely done!

 

Had Matt install my split system yesterday with 2 group35 x2's, and I was very impressed! Matt was very meticulous during the installation and made everything look good. He explained everything very thoroughly during the installation process and made sure I understood the system before I left. If you are thinking about one of his systems or even just a tray, don't hesitate to spend your money at Off-Grid Engineering!


Don' mind the dirty engine bay and other rats nest wiring I've done lol

 

Thanks man! I hope it treats you well and you never get stuck with a dead battery again!

 

Here's one of the pics I took. And this is AFTER we pressure washed the engine, haha. @CoBackCountry really uses his truck!

This system is fully decked out. We went with the 1/0 AWG cable upgrade with a Blue Sea 300 amp inline ANL fuse. Also, custom fuse box and circuit breaker cables.

And we learned something! These trays fit with the K&N CAI kit! It's a tight fit, but they work.

 

Very nice setup!

 

wow I can see that your design keep improving! great work OP. last time I inquire you only have dual battery tray compatible with vehicle that no ATRAC. Now you have the option for all Tacoma's!

 

Thanks! Im working on getting at least two or three more designs out in the next month!

 

I forgot to mention I received my box and your craftsmanship is second to none sir. Of course it will be a long time till I Install it but it's going to be a pleasure to do so. Thank again

 

I'm thinking about putting mine in the truck bed. Is that one your design? Two battery in stock battery location kinda scary...

 

Awesome! Im glad you're happy with it! Feel free to give me a shout anytime with any questions you may have.

 

It's not as scary as it looks. Ive run that setup for years with no problems. But I do understand why people don't like it.

I can absolutely make you a wiring kit to mount a battery in your bed. I don't necessarily have a tray built for this location but there are plenty of generic battery boxes on the market. If you found a way to mount them, I could provide you with everything else you need to get a fully functioning system.

Also, it may be a few months, but I will eventually have a battery box available for universal applications such as this.

 

For sure I will let you know.

 

Finally... Some high resolution pics of my full kit installed

 

Clean set-up and engine bay.
Now that is what I call a solid power reliability system.
