So I have my battery mounted, and wired up to feed the rear of the cargo bay now. Used the circuit breaker near the battery and installed to the cradle itself. In future it works well as a switch to cut power to all live cables in-cab or engine bay.

Used a 16mm cable for feeding the fuse distribution blocks, and ground the battery to the body where one of the supports attaches to the sidesteps/runners.

Installed my fridge last night, and YIPPPEEEEEEE, it is cooling water right now, and it is reaching 40 degrees outside during daytime!!!! :blonde: :blonde: :blonde: :blonde: :blonde: :blonde: :blonde: :blonde:
