Re: WTB: One washer jar bracket for a auxiliary battery truck (pics attached)

If you do like GM did then yes. The j-block for the aux harness interferes with the wash jar location. GM re-located the jar on the RH fender as shown in the schematic above. Forget trying to add the GM radiator coolant overflow tank - no room with a factory aux battery install. If all you want to do is add a tray and run a custom harness or whatever then probably not.

It's funny - I've seen a fair number of posts related to aux batteries but only one (musicman) who actually is using an aux battery. Installing an aux battery (as I did in my K20 restoration) imparts its own set of questions in terms of how the battery attaches to the j-block etc. No big deal just never covered in a thread that I could find.
