Will this Tomken dual battery tray work in my 95 YJ 2.5L?
I currently have a York compressor in place of the factory A/C.

Run an electric fan and put your dual batteries above the front axle, you have plenty of room just make sure you don't restrict the airflow too much.

As a bonus this will put more weigt on your front axle which will help while climbing. :)

Good idea, Freak...
Do you do this? (i.e. PICS?)

It looks like you could build a box or mounting platform pretty easy that would fit to the side of the engine compartment.

I've got an e-fan in my 2.5 right now...
Might as well use all that wasted space for something.

Not yet I plan on mounting my airtank and batteries there soon enough though.

Too bad batteries aren't cheap :(

yes, I did it to mu 94 before the 5.0 swap, its tight, but it fits...

Now the question is, do you really need dual batteries?
