When I purchased my Bighorn, it only had a single battery so I paid the dealer to upgrade it to two. Here's the result"
The covers are off, buy you get the picture. Just a sloppy installation, with wire stuck betwen the upper and lower case halves, sloppy crimps with no insulated cover at the crimp (shrink wrap), two vent hoses, boxes installed crooked, vent hoses improerly attached with a self tapping screw that held nothing, etc. - just plain ugly.
I decided to upgrade based on a battery box I saw in a Landmark. This is the new installation:
If you choose to do this, call Heartland and order the following parts:
0148725 Stud - Battery Power -Positive - Red - w/Hardware & Boot -- $29.85
0148726 Stud - Battery Power - Negative - Black - - w/Hardware & Boot -- $29.85
0127842 (Box - Battery - .125 x 14 1/2 x 15 3/4 x 6 1/4 - Top – Polyethylene)--$19.44
0127843 (Box - Battery - .125 x 14 3/4 x 16 x 5 - Bottom – Polyethylene)--$20.49
Not cheap but MUCH prettier! (and I think safer)
