What exactly is killing your batteries.? If you do plan on relocating your battery to the rear, I would suggest buying the biggest cable you can find. Maybe with all the water and mud, you might have a bad alternator.

did you upgrade your wiring to handle the 200amp alt and you probably need to buy a actual good battery and not a cheapo to handle that much
