Re: It's my turn, 47 S10 build

Long overdue picture dump. I don't have a good excuse other than I've been lazy with updates.

I built a battery tray for it that fits behind the right rear wheel. I'm thinking instead supposed, rear weight and right side weight to offset fuel tank, steering column, driver etc still need to get a remote charging/jump start post wired in as well as a inner fender cover for it.

The bottom was cut from 3/16 plate because I got a bunch for free and then framed with 1 inch square tubing. Top of the mount uses two existing box to fender bolts and the two bottom bolts are drilled below the bed floor so there's no extra visible fasteners. Kinda bit of a pain to pull the tire in order to change the battery but it's easier than a couple I have swapped batteries on that are mounted under the cab.

Also works if I need to disconnect power the negative cable bolts to the frame forge under it. One nut, pull the cable and power is off
