Anyone got a dual battery system in a Patrol GQ with LPG setup????

Just wondering if this is possible without moving around the components of the LPG system.

Looking under my bonnet, i think they've installed the LPG unit in the biggest space they would find, right where the dual battery would ideally go..

Are there altnerative places where a second fully sealed battery could go, ie under the car itself somewhere????

regards
Jeelan

My LPG converter is mounted on the firewall, passenger side. This leaves the 'usual' spot next to the radiator overflow bottle for the second battery clear. Can you shift the converter? Alternatively, a fully sealed battery can go inside the car somewhere but make sure you use beefy wires.

Cheers

I had my converter relocated to the drivers side when I changed to an Impco system, The fitters always fit them on that side, makes the run shorter converter to engine and works better. Left heaps of room on the passengers side for battery, compreseor etc.

All the bestSo many places to go!
So much work to do :0(
