Here are some pics of my set up. This engine compartment wiring was on my list for this winter. Then the main wire running to the starter fell out of the factory connector. Still have to get to the rest of the rats nest.

This is my first 1st gen. Is it only supposed to have one battery? Every other cummins i have owned had two.

Yup There are ways to mount two, as I have. I have two red top Optima's side by side on a modified stock battery mount. I can post a pic up later this evening.

Ever come up with a pic of your side by side batterys? I am intrigued as to how to do it.

Shoot! I totally forgot to post a picture!

The way that is pictured above is how I mounted mine, but with dual Optima's. I like them because they are a little lighter than two stock lead-acid batteries, and that they are slightly shorter too. I can still work around them if need be.

I don't remember why but i changed mine to be parallel with the truck, so you can do it either way
This time however I'm going to put one on each side
