Hi, I have a 2002 GMC Yukon and Im wanting to do a battery relocation to the blank spot I have in the engine bay on the passengers side. I have a new bigger battery with 1000c.c.a which is great for me as the battery I have is worn and only has 650c.c.a. However the battery is bigger and it wont fit in the stock location so I want to put the battery on the passenger side. I would like to know what gauge wire I should use to run across the engine bay to the passengers side and where to buy the passengers side battery tray and mount from. Thanks

Better check the size (dimensional) of that battery to the size of stock tray, if it doesn’t fit in the stock tray it def wont fit on passenger side, with a stock tray, its tight back there with a regular size battery. The NNBS batteries come stock back there and the blank spot is up front. You are def gonna have to remove the roundish fender brace and maybe custom make a tray that sits lower.... if the 1000cca battery is bigger than the stock group battery for NBS’s..
