For hmknightbc, why do you saw to leave a 12v battery in the rear?
Since it is already there i would keep it. And generally 12v batterys are better for high amp applications so let it carry the high surge current for operating the winch and door. Buy a automatic battery isolator and install in the existing 6awg wire going to the rear battery. That way the converter will charge that 12 volt when it is operating and 12volt will be isolated from the 6volt bank when not charging (prevents the different type batteries from interacting with each other)
