Looks good! You should submit a how to on this. I think a lot of members will be interested.

 

that is awesome. I am wanting to do this too, whats the amp rating on that isolator?

we put these isolators in at work but they are like a foot long and are 240 Amp isolators. look just like that though.

is the marine battery a deep cycle?

 

he has a optima redtop and blue top so yeah the blue is a deep cycle.

 

i have a blue top that is not a deep cycle. is why I asked. I'm sure since he has a red top he would get the deep cycle for the other, but still.

 

It's a 95 amp isolater . made by Sure power inc. The hardest part of this Mod is drilling out the spot welds of the battery tray. thanks=brian

 

New battery tray is 14x101/2". you must cut the corner rad support a little. Hardest part is drilling out battery tray spot welds. Move the ABS assembly easy , the brake line move easy. Cut and remount ABS bracket in new hole.See pictures=.

 

any pics? sounds like something id like to do.

 

yea i cant see any of the attachments?

 

It was part of the server crash yesterday. Most of the attachments were lost. I'd PM the guy and see if can re-post them if you are really interested.

 

Hey Brian! Repost those atatchments! I wanna see this!

 

Damn server crash! lol i know... it happens... redundancy is key in a server situation. i got my hands on a red top and i can get more so this definately interests me. Pm away!

 

I'm sure he will repost pics when he gets back on. He posted them a few times earlier in the week.

 

attached are missing pics of battery MOD=

 

attached missing pics. hope these help.

 

Thanks! Always nice to put pictures with the words.

 

More pictures on 2 batteries same place. Thanks for the feed back.=brian

 

Yes I'm bring a dead post alive lol but are you allowed to cut the battery box for a bigger battery without voiding warranty thanks

 

My truck is 2006, if your truck is out of warranty , it's yours to mod.

 

You definitely got a sweet mod going on, kudo's for sharing photo's. Nah i just bought the vehicle used with a extended warranty but for some reason, i can't find a batter larger then 540 cca that will fit in the stock battery box, without modifying it, that's where the question came in if i was allowed to modify such an area without voiding my warranty . Thanks

 

Nice mod thanks for the pics and specs.

 

Why do this on a ranger? What are you needing that extra power for?

 

I'd like to do this to have my second battery running my audio, because right now I have some dimming issues, and also I do think I will be getting more accessories eventually.

 

Didn't read that... Thanks.
