Hey

I'm trying to figure out how or where to mount a Deka Intimidator 9A31 in my 1998 chevy tahoe as a second battery. It cannot mount in the back of the Tahoe, so it must go under the hood somewhere, or under the body. The battery is sealed and can be mounted in any orientation. Any Ideas?

There are two battery trays under the hood; however neither is large enough to accomodate a group 31 battery. I could possibly move the charcoal canister over a couple inches and mount the battery in the second battery tray, but not sure if that's possible.

moving the canister over would probably be the most reasonable to get it to fit under the hood.

it's a simple thing to move the canister.
don't forget to get a 200 amp selonoid to wire between the two batts

over the passenger wheel i think is the spot. I agree with these guys, all you need to do is move the evap cannister.
