onebadmonte Posted March 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Thanks for all the kind words fellas. I finished welding up the battery rack hangers today. That and I sanded off all the splatter to keep things looking nice and smooth when they're painted.

bcpballer64 Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 nice. you should bed liner the whole rack and hanger system. it would look sick and be durable.

onebadmonte Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I got some hardware in and as luck my have it, I actually had the energy to get some work done. Enough with the yapping, now for some pics. Looky, looky here. Hardware from my favorite source. What do we have here? Wood insert and rivnuts in 8-32, 10-32 and 1/4-20. Also some 1/2-13 nuts, bolts, washers, and lock washer. Those big bolts are 3/4-11. Heavy duty. With the hardware in I put the battery rack base and hangers together. Before getting the rack in place I had to prep the spare tire are. Here you can see the line I have drawn across the spare tire hanger sheet metal. I'll be taking off everything below the line on both sides. Here is a shot of the aftermath. Here the first rack is in place. Pic is looking in towards the center from the passenger side. Here I am verifying my measurements. I've got just over half an inch between the cross-member and the top of the studs on the batteries. Here is looking at the rack from the drivers side.

onebadmonte Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Before I could get the second rack in I had to hack off some the the receiver hitch. Another classic jigsaw hack job by yours truly. A little close up. Here you can gauge how much I took off by comparing the close side to the far side. Now the opposite side. That jigsaw is one bad mofo. Ahhh, the carnage. That stuff was every bit of a quarter inch thick. Those $2 jigsaw blades from Wally's Mart took'em like a champ. Moment of truth. I've got a little over an inch between the receiver hitch and the rack. Lined up good with the factory opening in the frame. I meant to do that. This is the drivers side frame rail Now the passenger side frame rail One last shot from the drivers side looking up towards the center. Time for bed. I was a productive day.
