Chris Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I'm sure you're not gonna bump with the car off so forget an isolator. I almost wish I could be there to help you with this thing man. Do you see any rubber grommets leading through the firewall that you could run the 0 guage through? Most of the time your hood latch cable runs through this.

sierra mist Posted April 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 if your just gonna do dual batteries, keep the factory one in its spot and put your kinetik, optima etc... in the other spot since your system will draw from it first. also you might want to consider using an isolator if your gonna run the system with the engine off so your not drawing from the factory battery as the second one is draining. What about hooking it up to the alternator and all that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roscoe1129 Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 just link your new battery to your old one with some oawg wire and then from your second battery to your distro blocks etc....its what I did with the benz and it works great!

Derrick824 Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I have an '06 Yukon and my battery is located in that spot behind the driver's side headlight. You need to get inside the truck and find a spot under the dash where you can route the power wire through. The good thing about these trucks is that the interior moulding pops right off & on and its really easy to run the wire through the inside of these trucks. I don't know of any spots off hand on the passenger side firewall that will allow you to run your wire through though. Everything in mine is on the driver's side.

Most of the time your hood latch cable runs through this. I sure could use your help. there is a small on on the driver's side. Shoot, that would take up about 4 feet of my power wire.

lovellsz Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 i had a friend who had a 99 tahoe and it came factory with dual batteries, one on the drivers side and one on the passenger side. I will have to look to see if i took any pics of the engine bay from when he had it with a system in it.
