Jim all the rear portion work is looking really really good. What is the major reason for running dual batteries Jim?

Just me...they are tied together...the pass. will run straight to starter lug..dr.side runs rest of truck..notice the box at rear of driv. batt...that's the autowire 175 amp mega fuse..made it where it's easy to get to if needed....notice those grommets in end of 1" crossover tubing..they are valvecover pvc grommets....worked perfect for that..........jim

Incredible work as always. I love all the attention to details. I wish I shared you joy for wiring:(.....
Need to get some mirrors to lay next to the truck, It's a shame to cover up that chassis with body panels.
