Does it have to be an optima battery?
It will fit in the cargo area, but running the power lines may be tricky once I take the carpet out. Not to mention the expence of the isolator and wiring. I'd have to wire them both into the isolator and run the wires all the way through the truck to the rear end. :eek:
An alternator, would be plug and play! :allrighty:
Yes, it has to be and optima. The one in her is already and I want them to match. :allrighty: Also, it's a gel battery and not a liquid. Handles bouncing around better and works upside down, if needed. :eek:
I am curious about the isolator... Does the alternator charge both batteries when you use one?
