It fits! I just did a really fast test fit. Unfortunately, the Odyssey distributor sent me the wrong battery (diffferent terminals) so I didn't finish the mounting yet, but I did do a quick test fit!! Pics tell it all! First two roughly show how much bigger this battery is. Second two pics...

Current mini-projects: the brakes, and my battery mod (to fit a huge group 31 battery in the factory spot). Looks like a fun night!

Just a couple extra pics... Also, the exact battery part number I ordered is 31-PC2150MJT-H Evidently the dual terminal model I mentioned earlier was an old part number. This one is the same battery but with an additional metal jacket around the case for heat protection...

So I got sidetracked with a little mini-project today that seems to work so well that I figured I should post it for everyone to explore on their own if desired... I tossed around the idea of a dual-battery setup for my 2012 for a long time. Obviously a very attractive option and having a...

How about a teaser pic? :)

How about a pic to answer that??! :) I ended up fitting it gorgeously in the factory reservoir spot. Had to slightly reroute a wiring harness and move the airbag sensor a few inches. Looks like it was meant to be there. And no, my hose routing is direct and without kinks or obstruction...

Ha :) Actually have thought about it... maybe someday :) My last project... and I promise...last self-thread-hijack :) And yes, my boys and I did all the work...

Just ordered some more parts, and headed to machine shop tomorrow to pick up an adapter I designed. Cross your fingers! I am gonna hijack my own thread for one quick second though to post a pick of my new diff covers I just finished. Gecko green!! Didnt spend too much time making them...

Noted. Thus why I have this :)

And one more to show the precise pad alignment... Sent from my Nexus 7 using WAYALIFE mobile app

So many ... How about my cheap labor parts disposal crew?? (The one on the right is mine... the rest just show up when the jeep is being worked on :) ) Price: 3 snow cones Seriously, though, I'd have to say the Rubi sway bar disconnect motor relocation mod / bolt. Flips the motor 180...

Benchtop mock up! OK, so in less than one hour, I was able to jack up my jeep, remove wheel, caliper, rotor, and unit bearing, and then transplant the unit bearing temporarily into the modified Reid knuckle, along with rotor, new caliper, etc. Pics were taken, and then my Jeep was put back...

Just figured I'd add a thought about what I think is a pretty darn nice design... just given all the harping on the design of this Teraflex carrier. I purchased a MetalCloak front and rear bumper with tire carrier. Couldn't be happier. The tire sits on a triangulated steel platform, so the...

I am running the Dually D2's on the back of my rig. Using the diffusion pattern. They are gorgeous as far as pattern for a reverse lamp. So bright AND wide that I turn them on in my driveway at night so my kids can ride their bikes after it cools off (west texas summers...). I have the...

A few recent teaser pics.... checking clearances.

Well, look at THIS! --> I just happened to find a FILM that can be applied to any surface and will visually depict pressure across a surface. Brake pads are one of their specific uses! I am ordering samples! Pretty cool, huh??? This will allow me to test the pressure across the inner...

Hijacking my own thread for a second... LOL :yup: ...with a few pics of my kids helping me mount tires on the beadlocks! (Hey...there is a pertinent issue here to my brake thread: I needed the new wheels to measure clearances with the new caliper! Backspacing is key here... )

Caliper Mock Up So here is some fun stuff! Got to pull the wheel and take a few measurements, mount the big rotor and caliper, check clearances, etc! I took alot of pictures, hi-res, but for ease of viewing I am posting them on here at 1024x768 size so they aren't like 10MB each :) Pay...

Teaser pic!!! The test caliper arrived a day early. It is HUGE. And gorgeous :) I just got home from a 16 hour shift, so don't be disappointed, but no, I'm not going to the Jeep to take a mounted pic until tomorrow! ;) Here she is!!
