Battery Tray/build Progress


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm close to finishing my first system...

Since I can't wait much longer for my dad to help me with the battery tray is there anyone that can help me get with the install.

Pics?

Also I wanted any suggestions on where to mount my amp.

It's a Rockford Fosgate t1000.1bd

Some build pics...

mediocre to say the least but hey its something.

If you want to mount amp, under the back seat is a good place. I have an 01 tahoe, i have a optima yellow top and 2 amps under my back seat. i used a piece of mdf 48 inches long cut it to go around all the seat brackets on wrapped in vinal. You have easy access to it and its out of the way, and all the wiring can go under the mdf, just cut holes to run wiring to amps.

can I get a picture of that by any chance because I just put the tray in and I can't fit an HC1400 in without taking out the support.

nevermind you changed it.

so just tilt it and I should be good?

my bad my laptop is slow but i fixed it.

if u look close there is a screw on the bracket with a rubber tip holding the battery down.

and the bracket was lifted up to go over the battery. where the bracket and fender bolt up

i took my support out.

as far as a strap, I built a tray that holds it in place..

a 14 or 1800 might bounce around, but trust me a 2000 is so tight its not going anywhere
