Was wondering if you can use two seperate jump boxes to jump start one of these. Put one on one battery and other on the second battery to turn one of these over?

Normally if you kill the battery from leaving the lights on or radio or anything 12v the front battery is dead the rear is ready to go. Therefore you just need to jump the front one and it will start.

The batteries were not totally dead the had some juice but not enough to crank her over. I hooked up both jump boxes one on each battery and cycled the glow plugs and she fired right up. Let her run and recharged no problems :beer:

i had to jump mine this past weekend before i broke down and replaced the 8yr old batteries. but a jump box and a truck worked fine for me
I've done that same thing. I put a jump box on the rear battery and and a truck on the front battery and it worked. My batteries were pretty dead when I did it.

here is a question. assuming you don't have a Nato slave plug and you wanted to jump a deuce with a cucv
where would you hook the jumper cables up at? Not on the deuce but on the cucv.

Thanks
