Dual Battery Set-up with Torklift Hidden Power Battery Mount and Solar Connection  

Question:

Expert Reply:

The TorkLift HiddenPower Under-Vehicle Battery Mount with Battery Box # TLA7727 has internal measurements of 14-1/2" L x 7-7/8" W x 9-3/4" T. This mount is a confirmed fit for your 2004 Ford F-350 with 8 foot bed.

It is possible to connect two 6V batteries to solar. You can either connect them in parallel to get 6V output or series to get 12V output. I've attached a photo of these options to assist. For your solar power, you can use the 2.5-Watt Solar Battery Charger # PTW2997.

Thanks for answering my question so quickly. I think you missed the point of the question though, which is if there is room under my truck to mount two battery boxes for dual 6v batteries. Would they fit on one side of the frame or one on either side.

I reached out to my contact at Torklift and they said if you have the camper tie down mounted to the frame then only 1 battery box will fit on that side so you would need to mount the second box to the opposite side. If you don't have that tie-down they believe that two will fit without any issue on the same side.
