Anybody have any pictures of frames with their battery in the rear. I am thinking about moving mine to the rear of my truck to clean up the engine bay a little. Any help is appreciated.

Now i have a question. When you moved the battery's did u run a ground to the motor, or just ground out to the frame instead and make a good ground from the frame to the motor? I know i'll have to run the positive up front, but will i need to run the negative up too?

^^ thats how I did mine to...no problems,
I drilled a hole and welded a bolt thru it to make sure I had a good ground...

Use a 0-1 or 2 gauge wire for both your ground & positive leads. You can use welding cable which is more flexible,just use red shrink tube @ the ends on the positive leads.
You will have a better ground system if you run one from the battery to the frame & from there to the engine.
I used distribution blocks for both + & - wires from the battery.
