I would not move them farther away. I would see if they would fit inside the battery box. Maybe mounted on lid.
How about an weather-tight plastic electrical box mounted in same location? Nice box is made for small battery installation on utility trailers.http://www.tekonsha.com/content/products.aspx?lvl=3&parentid=0&catID=1465∂=2018
You are correct that they should be protected in some way.
A plastic rain-tight electrical box or in the battery box is a good idea unless the frame acts as a bit of a heat sink? I bugs me the way they sit out in the open like they do with exposed terminals. There's also the typical 4x4 metal box there too and they just use regular wire nuts on the wires. It seems like corrosion waiting to happen...
