These are the white body AGMs from Batteries Plus.

I have only used the X2 and they are amazing, but a lot more.

Those batteries bot only have 525 CCA ???

Yea - they are dual purpose - deep cycle, not starters.

I've got a pair of cheap Interstates in my Cruiser. They were $85 to $90 each from Costco. I killed the Cruiser's battery last year when I was installing the backup camera and left the doors open and lights on for a long period of time. I pulled the dead battery out and Costco exhanged for $4.83.
Group 24F for starting and group 24 for house. National Luna intelligent solenoid for charging the house battery and National Luna battery monitor for both starting and house.

Jonathan - - I'm also envious of all that room and miss the nice boxes/tie downs on the 80s


I am not sure I showed these pics - might have, but got the dual battery set up in the 4Runner.

Went with the 1" shorter 34 for a starter to give me extra clearance for the Switch/ACR. Had to get something with a smooth top due to bracket, so that was $$ vs open cell.

In the back, I had this 24M for a while in a couple different vehicles. I used a battery box and I had to make a spacer for it, but its in there snug.

Great job on both of those. I’ve noticed the 4Runner has its challenges for these set ups. @lumbee1 the light under your hood installed or is it a magnet light? It’s just out of frame. If that’s installed I need That ! I finally Finished the dual set up in mine and now I’m trying out a switch kit that ISNT $600. We will see how it does. Had to put tape squares over, so far, unused switches. They would blind you at night.
