Aux Battery Box - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

onetonk5 · 02-27-2007, 07:15 PM

First off does the aux batt box use a regular ole right side bottom or is that specific?
Can anyone with a left side mount do some measuring and post dimensions...as the sides look like they would be pretty easy to fab up with the right tools.
that is all.

if you have a die grinder,drill, welder you can do anything

onetonk5 · 02-27-2007, 09:21 PM

yea..not sure how that helps.
Did all this with a cordless drill.

Bob Moore · 02-28-2007, 06:44 PM

If by bottom you mean tray, yes they use the same tray.

onetonk5 · 02-28-2007, 06:55 PM

cool........now can anyone post up some dimensions/drawings/cad file....anything?

earl87gta · 02-28-2007, 09:46 PM

if no one has done it by the time I get out of work ill do it for you.

Americanrider · 02-28-2007, 10:22 PM

Here are some pics of 2 units I just sold, They are already boxed so I can't get measurements. I have a 3rd one hidden in the rafters somewhere but it's not for sale.

724x4a/cchevy · 02-28-2007, 10:54 PM

If someone could give me dimensions, i can draw it up in either autocad 2007 or pro engineer.

724x4a/cchevy · 03-01-2007, 01:59 AM

earl87gta · 03-01-2007, 02:03 AM

earl87gta · 03-01-2007, 02:10 AM

I dont have a square here in the house to use and Ill need one to get a good mesurrment on the bolts.

stsalvage · 03-01-2007, 04:59 AM

Nice model you have going there in ProE. I'm learning how to use it (fairly quickly) and enjoy the ability to do whatever you want to viewing angle, changing extrusions, etc, etc.

What version do you use? We just installed 3.0.

Looks good.

724x4a/cchevy · 03-01-2007, 06:41 PM

yea im just learning it too. Im using 3.0 also. I still dont know all the ins and outs of it, but im pretty good with autocad 2and3d so it definately helps.
