depending on your motor normally over the left guard. If you have a big air box there may not be room.
In a ute i'd be going under the tray just behind the cab mate. plenty of room there.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Do you have space (no lpg) in the back passenger side of the engine bay? That's where a lot go if there is no gas system installed or something else in that space - others have installed them in various places so no doubt they'll be along to offer advice/opinion.

I've got the 2.8 turbo with a snorkle, so the second battery is LHS at the back.

If there is enough room at the fire wall that will be perfect, if this is the case then a 3rd Battery would go well under the tray mate
