My 2015 powerstroke battery went dead on one side, the other showed 675 cca, does one side always go dead first? Batteries were 5 years old. Should you replace both at the same time or can you replace just one?

most folks rotate the batteries to refresh connections.

i ran a 4 guage crossover wire from drivers side Ned batter post to pax side neg battery post.
the two batteries are normally grounded differently.
so far no problems on my 2019 with the cross over cable.

Change em both at the same time.
