Hi @LC4LIFE - I would like to ask some questions and spec out a kit for my build.
so in my quest of acquiring parts leading up to this, I’ve already procured the washer bottle relocation kit and the second battery tray. I’ve also procured a Blue Sea 7650 relay (back in 2016...)
my questions are can you quote me a complete battery cable overhaul kit (primary cables for starter/alternator) negative for the block and then the cables to mount a second battery and the switch to manage it in the cab? I guess I could use the red switch shown below but a switch in cab looks cool. Also those kindergarten instructions LOL.
Kit is wrapped up and on the site, but I still need to add some more photos. Those should come later this week, but let me know if there are any questions.
This kit provides all the necessary modules, fuses, wiring, and connectors to properly add a second battery to a 1993-1997 80 Series . You will still need to add a second battery tray along with relocating the washer bottle.
Cables are built using tinned marine grade cable, marine terminal lugs, adhesive backed heat shrink and PET protective covering.
Includes the following -
Blue Sea 7622 Automatic Charging Relay - Automatically combines batteries during charging, isolates batteries when discharging and when starting engines. The 7622 also allows for emergency cross-connect - this means that if your starting battery is dead you can self jump.
Blue Sea MRBF Terminal Fuse Block rated for up to 300A of protection.
Blue Sea 200A marine fuse to protect the main battery to ACR connection.
Blue Sea Dual MRBF Terminal Fuse Block rated for up to 300A for the secondary battery - one terminal will be left empty so you have the ability to easily add another circuit to the back of the truck or an additional fuse block somewhere else in the truck.
Blue Sea 200A marine fuse to protect the secondary battery to ACR connection.
Four stainless steel allen head bolts, washers, and lock nuts for installation of the ACR onto the cruise control cover.
1/0 tinned marine cable for secondary battery positive terminal to ACR.
1/0 tinned marine cable for primary battery positive terminal to ACR.
6AWG tinned marine cable for main battery negative terminal to fender.
6AWG tinned marine cable for secondary battery negative terminal to fender.
1/0 tinned marine cable for secondary battery negative terminal to engine block. Bolt for block included. This cable does not include the PET covering.
1/0 tinned marine cable for primary battery negative terminal to engine block. This cable does not include the PET covering.
Two Mil-Spec battery terminals for main battery - this allows OEM fusible link and wiring, along with the new terminal fuse block to be easily installed.
