    You should be able to fit a much larger battery there as you have more height. But it is exposed to heat.

    If you don't move anything, you can't get much bigger in there as there is not enough length and the top terminal bolt rubs ever so slightly on the bonnet

    Garry, if you NEED large stored battery capacity, there is the option of putting a battery in the rear cargo area.

    I have a number of customer who have a battery box in the rear cargo area that they only place it in there when they go on a trip.

    You could also fit to small batteries up front, one in each of the locations mentioned.

    I have a couple of customers with their D4 set up this way and this would be the same as doing yours this way.

    Anyway, it has been their for a year now and is performing well....

    Lucas,

    Are you using the Traxide SC-80LR system with the battery tray and if so, did the Remco fit without any modification to the setup?
