Adding Extra Battery

I am going to be adding an extra battery to my truck, just to keep them radios and amplifiers happy.
My idea for a secondary battery location is right behind the stock location. I will have to relocate the vaccuum can and the smog pump can or whatever it is. Has anyone done this yet? Pics would be appreciated.

There's a long thread on FSB about all the different ways & locations to add a battery, and the reasons to do it each particular way. There are lots of pics & diagrams, too. Use the search function on that site to dig it up & read the whole thing before you post. Asking a question there that has been answered (a bunch) already is: flame ON!

You can go as simple as wiring two batterys in parallel to make basicly one large battery, or you can get fancy with isolation relays to make a starting battery, and aux battery to have different functions, and the ability to crossover to not leave you stranded.
