Thread: What else do you keep in your Defender battery box (besides a battery)

Top idea Tony, I may just do that, like Omaroo, I also have two N70 size batteries & the isolater unit, & 6 bank accessory fuse holder in thier, I could do with some room, mainly height, I do have rubber protection to stop batteries shorting out as both go east west rather than north south like factory battery. I used to have a pic on the old website gallery

THEN see what you can fit in there......

Jumper leads for now as I`ve only got one battery fitted at the momment.

The previous owner of The Pig had moddified the driverside to encompass an even bigger space under the seat.
I would advise against storing metal tools in with a battery if you go off road much, nothing like a spanner welded to terminals..

I've got 3x batteries (yep, they just fit...), a split charge, spanner roll and a tin of WD40.

Mark.

In the battery box I have 2 batteries somehow fitted in a L configuration and a Traxide SC80 in the back corner.

Under the drivers seat I have my 2 sets of spanners (1 set imperial + 1 set metric), my ractchet set, a 10'000 candlewatt possom blinder, and a torque wrench

You'd be amazed at how often the drivers seat comes off One day (ha) I may get around to asking someone to make a storage drawer in the back guard area someone to hold all my gear

I don't have anything in mine

my drivers seat comes off everyday as there are two socket sets (1/4" Snap On and 1/2" Sidchrome) lump hammer, hide hammer, copper faced hammer, rivet gun, two 24" stilsons (they just fit) 18" shifter, 600mm breaker bar, various files, torx key set, various drifts, various cold chisels, tyre repair kit, loctite, hylomar, bow shakles, snatch block, and a few other odds and sods.

Two zero maintenance batteries fill up the other side in that L config along with the Piranha/TJM controller.

What on earth do you need metric for in a Landrover?
