Battery Relocation and Wiring

[BMERDOC]

Its old but I'm still here! Actually, I did not attack this...until now. I have the motor pulled out getting everything from the firewall forward n eat and tidy. I bought a battery box to install on the frame. I saw a few pics where the box was mounted on the outside passenger framerail, underneath the cab and so I wanted to put it there. There is a diagonal brace under the cab so I don't know what they did but I had to cancel that plan. I am saving the spot under the bed, ahead of the front tire for the air bag compressors and tanks so that's out. I will be going behind the rear tire. I stripped the front harness and rewired it for an internal regulated alternator and bought a bunch of wiring and bits from MAD Electrical to upgrade the front wiring. hopefully Ill be installing this stuff in the next few weeks. After four years I think I've procrastinated enough.
