Re: 66 C50 Cummins build aka Big Stupid

I got the rear end welded up. I then made a battery tray. Sorry the pic is terrible. I wanted to keep the battery close to the starter so I decided to mount it on the side of the frame next to the drivers side front cab mount. I needed it to be close to he body for ground clearance but that makes it hard to swap or install cables. I got creative and I made side matching plates that have a slot in them and allow the battery tray to slice down 4” since this plates are welded to the frame and not the tray. Install the battery then slide it up into place and lock it down with the 4 bolts that go through the side brackets and into the lower battery tray. Works out great.
