    depends. do you want it in the bed, or just behind the other headlight to do a short run intake tube that doesnt ride the radiator?

    It was done on my old Mazda but I don't remember how we did it. The ground we just put on the frame I kno that but forgot the front. I think it was just one long ass cable

    If you go to a Street Rod Shop you can find some neat battery boxes. I used a Stainless Steel unit that drops down for service. It is really rugged and looks good. I mounted mine on the right side of the frame just behind the cab. It mounts high on the frame but drops down via its built in slide so you can get to the wiring / cables.

    The only thing tht sucks when it's under the bed an your truck dies. That sh*t was a pain in the ass. But once I moved it inside the bed it was nice
