I wanted to mount the battery somewhere other than in the engine compartment and usual places of in the cab, between the running boards and frame didn’t appeal. So ended up finding a spot just in front of the rear triangulated suspension where the battery would fit. Probably have too much time on my hands 😊 but ended up with this setup that can be dropped through 90 degrees to get access. I will be installing additional battery terminals behind the passenger seat for charging and/ or jump start as needed.
