 |
|
Has anyone on the list relocated the battery from the firewall to behind the rear passenger seat? I was trying to install a larger battery but the current plastic box will not allow for a larger battery. I have a sealed battery and was thinking of placing on a tray behind the seat and held in place with a steel band! I have a Model IV 1200.

I did that on my model 3 when I changed the 582 for a Jabiru, Ray. The Odessey 680 battery fits nicely right behind the seat, in the centerline, attached by a steel band and a snap locking device from yachts.

<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]--> Ray, I installed my battery behind the seat. It sets between the cross braces and is held in place by adel clamps. Works very well.

Sounds like a good idea...
Use cushion (Adel) clamps to attach your tray to the frame. Don’t forget to do an amendment to your W&B
