I thought I would post up a few pics of the install. Our trays looked pretty decent as far as fitment went, so we thought it would be no problem knocking out 2 on Monday night. HAHAHAHAHAH!!! YEAH RIGHT! In defense of RuSlow, our trays lined up great. The only catch is that Screaming01L has a cutoff switch and a tiny Odyssey battery, and I have a battery the size of Texas..
Anyways, we got Screaming01L's completely finished, and hopefully we'll get mine in on Thursday night.
On to the Pics
This is what we finally came up with as a safe mounting solution. Looks like we owe someone a tie-down hehe. Had to drill 4 more holes in the tray.
We had to move his tray towards the front a bit to clear the kill switch. This involved 2 new bolt holes, and hogging the original hole on each side out to sit flush against the frame, thanks to 2 giant rivets for the stock X-brace in the back.
Clearance between the switch now.
More than a finger's worth of space. Can you tell how much we loved this install?
My Stinger Dry Cell setup
We removed the 2 side tabs, and then used 6 self tapping screws to mount the battery box to the tray. I covered the screws with carpet on the bottom to keep them from rubbing into the battery.
Securely mounted, and ready for Thursday. Hopefully it will go a lot smoother than Dave's crazy getup haha!
Once bolted up the bracket seems VERY solid. All in all I think it's a great mod to help weight transfer, and to give us some more room up front to utilize for IC reservoirs, turbos, etc.. Thanks Stan!
