Adding Second Battery To 2000 Gmc Sierra?

[Wayne02]

I didn't find a whole lot on this subject for this particular year truck via a search. I'd like to add a second battery to my 2000 Sierra 2500LD NBS. I'd like the second battery to be deep cycle and be isolated from the starting battery for use in powering the camper/trailer.

 

I was wondering if anyone knew where the second battery is located from the factory on these trucks when they come with said option?

 

Looks like this is really the only place for one, and there is precious little room in this location, not to mention the fender brace going right over the top of the location. It doesn't look to me like a full sized deep cycle would fit in there height wise?

 

Anybody have a similar truck with a second battery that could add some insight? Pictures maybe??

 

Thanks

Wayne

ttt. I'd like to see how this goes as well. I've seen a factory double battery in this location, but would like to know if there's factory kit for dealer installation.

Thats exactly where the 2nd battery would go. There had been a few write ups on here from members that have added one. Search deeper, but yeah the search feature itself blows.
