Your batteries do not all have to be side by side. You can have one on tongue and the other two elsewhere.
These have batteries in the dinette bunk, mostly under the floor; iceberg style. They poke into the floor about 4 inches high, but mostly are under the floor and right over the axle. They are not taking up much space inside, and by being outside can vent outside.
Cut a hole in the floor inside a cabinet or storage space, keep it over or near the axle so there is no ground clearance issues (the axle will always clear).
build a box, build a hatch door for access, run the wires…
