baaudio Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) i got my hands on a second d6500 and wanted to try getting it to fit under the hood. i got a second coolant tank from the junkyard, so the only thing im losing is the front washer fluid reservoir but im gonna try to find a spot for that tank too. anyways onto the pics. where the batts going both coolant and washer fluid tanks removed, had to move my cruise control too like a glove the positive terminal is right underneath one of the contours in the hood so i have plenty of clearance first bracket made. you cant see but it wraps around the side and hooks the bottom and sits on the wheel well second bracket. uses a stud from the coolant mounts and hooks over the top to keep batt from rocking. done. just gotta paint the brackets now. you can see where i moved the cruise control to. its the little black piece with the little silver cap Edited April 21, 2011 by baaudio Quote Team NWSPL baaudio Build Log 2001 GMC Sierra walkthrough 4 Mechman Elite 370s, 10 AGM batteries, 3 Crossfire XS v2 18s, Crossfire 8k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kryptonite Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 I was thinking of doing this except shortening the air ram and taking the factory air box out, ur idea is slick too, might have to steal it Quote DC SOUND LAB NUT HUGGERCurrently Own 4 - 18" lvl 6s (m3) w/full Carbon Fiber option 2 - DC 5k lvl 4 motor lvl 2 motor On 8/2/2013 at 8:13 PM, n8ball2013 said: this is much worse.

baaudio Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 nice work man I would like to fit in a 2nd 6500 in mine but I dont got skillz like you to move stuff honestly this was super easy once i figured out where i wanted the battery to be. right now the cruise and spare coolant tank are just zip tied in place. the hardest part was making the brackets to hold the battery. that took some creativity lol. ill post more pics once i have it installed officially, right now im painting the brackets and waiting on wire to set it up.
