Dual battery options

Hi

New to forum and have just taken delivery of a new 2.7 D4. What is the preferred option for Dual battery setup in D4's? I have previously used piranha(?) units in both D1 & D2 but want to keep everything completely isolated from the D4 OEM systems.
Plan to fit winch, radio, anderson plug for van charging (2 x 100ah) and rear power outlets etc.
I will be getting dealer to install battery system etc.

Also does anybody have any recommedations as to ARB Bullbar / Warn Winch installations in Sydney.

Thanks in advance.

Mike

+1 for Traxide. Not that I've ever used anything else before, but it powered our Engel tirelessly without any issues.

Hi folks and thanks for the good wrap.

Hi sijui, and this is off subject but I see you are in Gayndah, can you tell me if the Monto loop line is still in operation?

Traxide for me too!
Very neat, everything already cut to length and wired up and specific for the D3/D4.
