Got my battery box's made. The battery's are 7.5"X 12"X 7.5" and are 50lb each. The outside of the box's are 50", so I can bolt the box side's right to them and gives me 1/2" extra for battery's. The sheet metal is to protect from tire projectiles and is 1/8" thick.

Well, we know those battery trays won't fall off.

They look very robust, nice work!
