Battery box which a made to fit behind the bumper inside the frame rail. This frees up the firewall for other equipment such as airconditioning stuff. The location has worked great for me, easy to jump others or get a jump if needed.

1 P0001420 Side view of the battery box, the lid is loosened and rotated out of the way so the battery can be removed.
2 P0001421 Undersurface view of the battery box and the framework for the box. The outside wall of the box is actually the frame, the inside wall up against the winch, the front is the bumper, so all I had to make was 3 sides.
3 P0001422 This is a top view of the battery box with the lid on.The lid is held on with an elongated frame extension bolt, and a nut is added.
4 P0001423 Front view of the battery box. The lid is quite sturdy, notice the foot print on the box. It's a god place to stand while working on things under the hood.
5 P0001424 Side view of the battery box with the lid off.The box will hold a 900 AMP battery, I chose an optima battery to reduce the risk of leakage.
