I'll have to check out the video. The first video of the initial start up were good, so anything after that is bound to be great.

This is the location I chose for for batteries. Spent a lot of time getting it worked out but I think it will work:-)

Very well done. Neat and clean installation.

Very easy to get to the batteries there jb. Do you have a cover for the Positives? I was thinking if something metallic dropped on those, it would create a show.

WOW that is impressive jb, as gm said "very neat and clean installation"

That would be a show Bob

I'm a cable and wiring guy - neat job. You didn't scrimp on wire size, that will deliver a LOT of amps. Of course I wonder what you are going to put over them to keep wrenches off the terminals.....

Yes sir, on the cover. I have rubber post covers, 3/8" rubber mat that will be placed over batteries eventually with an aluminum semi-truck battery cover I will alter/fab into the setup.

Rear bumper install next.

Be safe out there.

Yeah, wire is 1/0��. Two 590cca batteries parallel 1180 for total current. No hesitation in start.
