    Looks good, I like the battery notched into the fender...might have to copy that idea
    Are you going to run 1 or 2 batteries? 2nd battery on the passenger side fender?

    Man I really like that inner fender battery tray idea. I might have to do that as well. The only thing is I'm worried that your tire might rub on the tray when your flexing offroad. Did you take that into account? Its hard to tell from the pictures how far it sticks down but it looks awesome either way. Nice fab work dude!

    Tire comes no where near the battery tray at full lock, despite the stock ride height and 38x15" tire.

    I am only running one battery. I made the notch wide in case I decide down the road to upgrade from the group 34 battery to a group 31. I welded the actual tray to the fender instead of making bolt mounts. After I widened the radiator support, the battery wouldn't fit where I had it. This also is nice because I don't have to run a long battery cable either.

    A single group 31 battery will fit behind each seat in the cab too. You won't be able to stow the top frame and bows any more though.

    Looks good.

    Wondering if you used the stock steering column and where did you get the " borgeson " joints at ? I would like to find some of these at a decent price.

    It is a late 70's Ford E250 steering column. The joints and shaft are flaming river.
