Thanks traffic, that should give me a good starting point.

Do you have any close-ups of where the new mount needs to go, maybe from the top and side?

Thanks!

I'm going to try to produce a full size prototype today.

Possibly. Can you send a pic of the battery box holes?

Man I wish I had a spree frame lying around the shop.

Ok, good deal. I found some really good pics from a spree build that took place on the forums a few weeks ago.

I see now why a bolt on option would be so well received. Welding thick steel plate to that thin frame can get nasty quick.

Now I'm excited. :mrgreen:

I'm willing to drill holes, can even tap threads if needed. What I can't do is weld :oops:

Not sure if this makes me an oddball or not.
