    I need to relocate my battery because of my retro fit headlights. Don't have a welder so I can't make a box so I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for anything else I could do to get the box out of the way? I don't really want it in my bed but I don't see any other place to put it.

    As always, I enjoy seeing pictures if you have any to help me come up with some ideas of my own. :)

    Thanks guys.

    Is there room behind the seat in the cab?
    Have mine there ,but my truck is a extra cab.
    Used a battery box from Summit, & ran all 2Ga. cables.
    Used a distribution box in the engine bay ( power from the battery ) to all in the engine bay!
    Have distribution boxes in the cab for power & grounds to all in there!:cool:

    Mine is under the bed on the opposite side of the chassis from the gas tank. I used a weld on battery box from Summit. I used 1/0 welding cable for my feeders, connecting it to the distribution block for my amps.

    You can also get a bolt on box I believe.
