To read the original full thread and post questions/comments on this topic, please go toDual Battery Install with CAI
I installed the Dual Battery System from Larry at Dirty Parts. Larry's system has easy to read instructions, that are step by step and very detailed. He even sends a CD of the pictures on how it is to be installed. Thanks Larry for an awsome set up.
I had to do a slight modification to the battery tray because I have a CAI installed.
Battery Tray installed Battery Tray Modification Trimed about 1/2"
Hold Down is tight to CAI Relay Starting the wiring Long Positive cable to stock battery
Positive cable between battery and fuse box
Ground Cable to Motor Mount Ground to Battery Stay away from hot Exhaust
Connections to relay Switch harness routing to inside switch Wire run Fused Link Finished Complete Wire Install Tight Fit next to the CAI Interior Switch
This is a real easy thing to do. The most time consuming thing is routing the cables and wires to make a clean install.
