Ideas for battery relocate?
I'm contemplating relocating the passenger side battery outside the engine bay so I can use the firewall area formerly occupied by the rad overflow for the windshield washer tank.
The current overflow tank has to be replaced by a pressurized version (looking for one of these). It seems this will mount best on the fenderwell like on a factory Dmax behind the airbox. This leaves the firewall area for a battery or the windshield washer tank which is rudely displaced by the Dmax fuse box (kinda necessary).
Any good ideas for relocating a battery? :confused:
Or maybe it's easiest to fab a washer tank that will fit under the driver battery and a battery tray for the passenger firewall. Decisions decisions. :confused: :rolleyes:
I did get a near complete 95 cab from DmaxMaverick (he brought it up from California!):) and have gutted it for the dash, HVAC etc. My cab floor is sandblasted, welded up and painted. Now for the scary electrical grafting. :eek:

Windshield washer fluid reservoir
Arlie,
The later 6.5L TD trucks actually came with a windshield washer fluid reservoir tucked underneath the driver's side battery. GM Part #22143999
The small pump that feeds the fluid to your wipers should swap over from your reservoir to the newer one.
