Don't you have an ACE hardware? Even our smallest location carries them, along with the washers and nylocs.

Here's the layout I'm planning for the batteries, oil tank, speakers, etc. Any input from anyone?

Looks like it should work nicely to me like that.... You might want to consider another battery just for the stereo since you'll have an amp and sub.

I may do that as a phase 2, or maybe 3 at this point. Any input on size? I'm thinking 29 bank? bigger = better?
