Battery location

[rponfick]

Anyone experimenting with alternate locations? I am certain I will not be able to remove or even access the battery in recommended location. It is said you can remove it through the bottom. I have tranny cooler lines on one side, and battery wiring, etc., on the other side. No way it would come out the bottom, unless you are Houdini.

I am thinking of cutting a trap door in the bed, but that would look hokey. Saw a post of one person mounting it in an old tool box in the bed.

While test fitting seats, I see there is a lot of wasted space behind them. Anyone looking at mounting the battery in the cab behind the seat?

Just thinking.

Mine is in the front, under the hood, on the passenger side.

I'm planning on a Braille B3121, this might change, I'm a long ways from needing a battery. The thought is to mount it below the upper trunk floor, passenger side, just above and behind the diff. Close as I can tell it will just fit.

turned my battery sideways had to move some braces and will shear off front of floor and hinge a area to flip back I will have to look at how the truck bed fits together, this is a Grand experiment building this
this Houdini would not want to try to get it out the bottom and I am planning a group 27 battery
