I'm saving that little plate to put my second battery - odyssey(?) make one that fits just right! One of the TrAction guys has one set up there - nice fit.
That second battery would be good for running an engel fridge. But finding a battery that will fit into that plate area is the hardest part . Matt you wouldn't have any pics of that install would you?
My old man had a similar problem with his terracan...he eventually found a sealed slimline drycell battery from battery world at Rocklea that could be inserted just about anywhere, and as it was dry could even be mounted upside down, sideways etc...
Think his theory was to use the slimline battery as the starter, then use the original location for some monster to power the fridge/etc.
Cody, the ACT Jeep guy with the dual batteries is Dennis Ford - rarely see him on BB's. I'm off OS for a week but will arrange to get a photo at the next club meet.
The other idea I liked was putting two optimas in place of the single factory one
