1997 Tahoe Dual Batteries
SnoMan 1995 Grand Cherokee sam1955 proclaimed: You probably want to continue this over in rec.autos.makers.jeep+willys Is this your ZJ or did... You are very lucky. That might work in an occasional use vehicle, but not usually in a daily driver. Normally batteries don't wear evenly and all connections aren't perfect so they don't charge at the same rate. This usually leads to one battery out of a parallel set getting boiled dry while the weaker one stays normally charged. They then discharge differently so every cycle gets worse. There is a good reason for the isolator setup. You never kill a battery by the above scenario or can't start it because you left something on by mistake or overuse. I also agree with the marine battery for the second one. Car batteries can go bad fast if totally run down.
