Battery Box for Remote Mount Battery

[DamnYankee]

Had this made at my work, it's a 1/2" Plexiglas (acrylic) battery box. Holes are already drilled for the battery cables and for the battery anchor bracket. There are two 1/8" aluminum plates (visible inside the box in the pictures) that I had cut. The intent was to place one inside the box and the other outside the box so that the clamping force of the bolts when installing would be on the aluminum rather than the acrylic.

Battery boxes on Summit run $80 or more for anything half way decent. This box is chemically welded and screwed together. The thing is pretty freaking stout. The stupid thumbscrews on top were $5 by themselves. $5 x 8 = $40 just for those things.

$75 in person, $100 shipped.

Getting out of the racing thing, no longer need it.

help me understand how this would mount and what it would look like and all... im just not seeing it.

[DamnYankee]

I was intending to mount it upside down (so all of the black thumbscrews you see would be pointing down). I have an Optima battery so it would be mounted upside down in the box. You can mount it right side up if you have a regular battery.

[sprayedenali]

do i have to figure out how to mount it or is there already bolts on the truck to use? and can you keep the spare tire?

[DamnYankee]

I had it mounted where the spare tire mounts (removed the hoist). But you could probably mount it closer to the right rear tire (better traction) or just mount it in the bed.

[sprayedenali]

do you have any pictures of it mounted?

he never got around to mounting it
