    Would like to hear from people who have been running two batteries up in the factory battery location for five+ years. That thin metal shears so easily I want to know if you've had any problems on the fender or radiator mounting areas due to the extra weight. ALSO include battery type since AGM weighs a ton...

    Since I have a 2019 Sport it can't run a second battery on the passenger side w/o moving a bunch of stuff. I'd much rather buy a dual tray and slap two lead batteries (one a deep cycle for house needs) right up front where the factory one is now. But not if it will cause problems down the road, or should I say up on the trails which I do a lot of.
