[QUOTE="mikeeg02, post: 1371796, member: 24194"] Look for tinned wire lugs. They are typically silver in color. They are more corrosion resistant. Always spray battery terminal sealer over your connections when done. I would not put the battery in the bed unless it was a race truck. The battery stud you've listed is an acceptable "union". 3/8 studs are typically how battery connections are combined. Separating your batteries so far will require significantlyrics larger battery wire. When our huge starters try to draw power, while your glow plugs are drawing in excess of 80 amps, your voltage drop across the wire increases significantly. If you use the frame as a conductor, you must increase the size of the wire between the frame and engine block/starter. There should be a ground braid/strap, but you'll want a better conductor, the ground braid/strap will burn up. If it was me, I'd keep it in the engine bay if possible. Helps withe battery accessibility and is better for corrosion. Don't most people relocate the second battery to where the stock air box was ? Since your air intake for the atmosphere charger will be on the passenger side at that point anyways. [/QUOTE]
