Bumpindemlowzz Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Ok, im trying to remove my kinetik 1800 from cargo area and place under the car and make a battery rack. I would like to keep the spare tire where it is. Im having troubles with deciding where it would go. Im getting another 1800 so that will make two total batts. Im a welder so i dont have a problem with making the rack its just the placement really. I think it would be safer this way also and cleanup my install a little car is a 2000 blazer 4 door 4wd Quote 2010 Silverado 18" DC XL 18 DC 2k XS Power Batts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeatBox Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 really no way to fit batteries down there with a fully size spare i took mine out as soon as i could, also in the car no spare me.... batteries > spare i think u might have to decide on one or the other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumpindemlowzz Posted June 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 yeah. i might have to keep them inside and screw the battery box to enclosure and bolt enclosure to floor. I like to go trail riding which is kinda sketchy with a decent system?! Quote 2010 Silverado 18" DC XL 18 DC 2k XS Power Batts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blazer Boy280 Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 just put the batts in the cab back behind the box or on either side and they should be good Quote My Build:Blazer Got Bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumpindemlowzz Posted June 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 Right now they are infront of box, directly behind seat. I figure ill just make a top and bottom for my mdf battery box and screw it to enclosure. then bolt enclosure to floor. that way if they move its minimal.

Bumpindemlowzz Posted June 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 (edited) Well i measured the space between blazer floor and frame and its got clearance for the batts and rack if they are mounted on their side. Im just scared that if i bottom out on frame the battery rack will bend and ruin batts and possibly fire?! Edit- both batt locations look to have positives and negs on placement. I think id feel better with them inside the cab. maybe ill just make it so i can just remove the batterys and enclosure really easily before trailriding.
