Battery Relocation / 70 Stepper

[flashed]

Im going to LS Swap my 70 stepper when it comes home from restoration shop and will need to relocate the battery due to the filter box I plan to use off our 2011 Silverado donor ,( not a stock box ) , can it be mounted under the bed like on a Fleetside ? Im also considering ordering an auxialliary battery box for a 4x4 for the driver side , Thoughts , or better ideas ?

I used an auxiliary battery box on my '67 Chevy Panel Truck. It bolted right up and worked great.

Under the bed would work if you have a heavy duty battery and use welding cable for the battery cables. I have the battery in my '39 Ford Coupe in the trunk and if the connections on the starter, frame or battery posts get a little corroded it cranks over really slow.

John I was going to suggest you find the auxiliary under hood battery tray so to keep the cables shorter and be much easier to get to than under the bed.

Thanks guys , that Auxiliary Battery tray is the way I will go . Im hoping to start blowing that truck apart as soon as it comes home . I will order a tray shortly .
