Picked up the "new green bomb" late today, so haven't had much time to play. Going ACT until late Friday, may get a chance Sunday after help Clive with yard clean of old Range Rover & Land Rover parts.

With an attidude like that, I just burn't pics of battery placement & good idea just flew out the window, have a nice day.

Be carefull will post embarrassing pics of you :wink:

Pics of your car in my gallery.

Cheers

That tray you speak of is where the SLS compressor is mounted on Discos with ACE & SLS it won't take the weight of a battery and also if you do mount one there what happens when you do any river crossings, or one bump from a rock or tree branchs and who knows what will happen.

Do what most do and mount it in the rear side storage area or passenger side rear under the bonnet.

I made my own tray.










Total cost the price of the battery $60

Baz.

hence why one asked the question of any other installs in this spot

Hey redfender,

What do you mean by "chassis mounted" :?

What are you trying to achieve here.

I have a mate who has mounted his second battery in the rear of his D2.
