Reply to "Battery drop down box"

Yes you are correct on all of those relocations and reroutings.

On the clutch line I put an Earls braided brake hose line in on a banjo fitting. This allowed me to swing the clutch line all of the way and have flexabilaty for the future.

I put in an Optima battery,case size 22. It's smaller then the 24, has a strap already attached and is 950 amps.

The battery box that I bought from Hall was supplied with a nice stainless top.

I carpeted mine and put some nutcerts in the floor and a couple of fancy thumbscrews to hold it in place.

If you are going to put the shims in for the bumpsteer correction, do them now along with the battery box.

One of the bolts for the rack will be right against the side of the box and is a wee bit difficult to get at after the box is in place.

Even so I had to put a 45 degree angle cut on the end of the rack supports and use allen socket bolts for clearance. It can't be any tighter then it is. It's close in there.

If you need pictures of any of the details let me know. I can probably wrestle the digital away from wifey for a couple of minutes.
