AUX BATTERY DELETE JEEP WRANGLER GLADIATOR JL JT

As you may have seen, me and my Jeep Wrangler were stranded in the Fairplex Pomona Parking Lot, during the 2022 Offroad Expo.
Lite Brite showed up and Kevin Williams showed me a picture of someone jumpering posts 1 & 2 with a lugnut, realizing I always keep spare lugnuts on board, we decided to try it; and, it worked. After 3 hours of waiting on a tow truck, we were finally able to start it, and I drove it home.
Next, I had to delete the Aux Battery and make to Post 1 & 2 Permanent.
In this video, I show I how I deleted my Aux Battery and permanently jumpered busses 1 & 2, proving that we don't need the little Aux Battery.
I hope this helps you in any way.
Please note, that I used Aluminum Sheetmetal plates, and recommendations were thrown at me to make them out of copper, and I agree, that would be a better way. I just used what was immediately available to me.
Dimensions of metal:
1/16" thick sheet metal (I use 2 because Aluminum)
1/16" = 0.0625
Length 1.5"
Width 0.5"
Holes 0.25"
Holes drilled out 7/8" apart Center to Center

Extra pieces were made to see how many could be squeezed in. Only two pieces fit; but, a third piece was cut in half; and, those two pieces were installed onto post 1 to level posts 1 & 2 evenly.
