Transforming to Dual Batteries..plz help

[JLMoses]

My 1994 Blazer does not have the second battery tray....any idea to how bad it would be relocating the things that are in the way to install the tray? any help i would be grateful...thanks

Not sure about relocating everything else, but you could just put the Batt in the cab and still run it like a dual battery setup.

was hoping to keep it under the hood....may have to do that...dunno yet..thanks for the advise

What about relocating the coolant bottle and putting the battery up in that corner?

[qlc1964]

go to the junkyard and find a 96 to 99 and get the batt tray out
you will need to move the canister to the side and get that bracket

too. i made my bracket fot the tray then i found out the 96 to

99 had this set up i even got the windshield bottle thats under

the tray so i took the top mounted washer bottle off and use that

space for the alarm siren and relays.

also get a stinger pac-200 relay to put between the two batteries so they won't discharge each other. don't use a battery isolator.

Dont use an Isolator? why not?
also what is the Canister used for that u have to relocate?
Would it be best to get a high output alternator or run duals?
i like the thoughts of a high output better cause of using the same length belt...I plan on goin to the local Truck Farm and pickin up a few items off a wrecked truck..so any help would be greatly appreciated

you loose some voltage going through it thats why it has heat

sinks on it .

the canister is part of the emissions for the gas vapors in the tank.

are year trucks take the small case alts and you can't get a 250 amp small case alt . you will have to change a lot of things to get

the big case alt in that spot. it would be easyer to do the dual alt set up.

yeah thats my pics
