Group31 Battery Tray?

I came across a pair of very Kinetik #KHC2400's for an unbelieveable price and I'm trying to figure out how to get one, or both into my truck.

They measure 13 x 6.7 x 8.5 (L,W,H) and obviously will not fit in the stock battery tray. I'm wondering if there was ever a tray made for these trucks that would handle a battery of this size, or I'm going to have to have a shop fab up a set of trays for me.

Re: Group31 Battery Tray?

umm.. you can cut in teh center of the tray and use some like sheetmetal (or a junkyard tray) and weld the apropriate length extension into it..
super easy... i just did it to my inner and outer fenders..
good luck!
