Here it is in the bed
This is mainly for weight transfer. It will help me on the traction a little bit. I used an Optima red top battery and O gauge wire. and a 2 gauge ground wire to the frame. The black bar across the battery is a piece of steel wrapped in Vinyl top material. It's wrapped so nothing can hit it and short out the terminals.
THE OTHER END
CONNECTIONS
This picture is where I connected it all. The O gauge wire is the big black one. one goes to the starter and one goes to the altenator and one goes over to the fuse box that is under the hood. There is a fuse in there thats a 175 fuse.
CLOSED UP
This is under the battery box on my S-10. It should be on yours also. It was pretty much like this stock I just changed a little of it around.
All strapped In
This is what it looks like all closed up and strapped in. It is bolted to the floor using 1/2 inch all thread rod with a nut welded on one side and nut and washers welded to the under side of the bed. so it threads in and out like a regular bolt.
