    excellent then,just a strange place to put a battery tis all

    Thank you everyone for the input. I have now decided to remove battery box from the rear shelves, safety concerns. Going to set it up in the trailer now

    Cheers

    being bolted down like that prob would have been ok, thought on trailer is a better idea definitely .

    Great cheap n easy alternative to those thousand dollar plus models.
    good job n yeah like the others I'd be putting the battery lower down just to keep heavy weights lower center of gravity n stuff
    N yeah definately for you n ya family health lol
    take care great work n I also like to hear peoples ideas so if theres any other cheap ideas for GQ snail bring them on as we all
    may benifit...

    Great job, and while you looked like having the battery sorted, much safer to have it lower or even better in the trailer so not having the extra weight to cart around every day.

    Hey GQ snail. Nice work on the shelves. What kind of battery did give you. I'm doing an engine conversion on my car at the moment and the only battery that I can use without having it vented to the outside of the vehicle was an optima.
