Adding Battery Box

[MarcorSmash]

Hello All,

I would like to add additional battery capacity to the current location. See pic, my intention would be to add another battery box by bolting or welding. Has anyone done this? please share your opinions and pics. thank you in advance.

Maybe??

I saw these in another thread in 2017. I copied the tray to install four batteries.





I latter upgraded to six batteries by turning them sideways.

Was the battery tray bolted or welded to the frame of the MH?

Bolted.
