Have done so many mods it doesn't look the same. 4 100watt solar panels on the roof, just so I can boondock some. OK question: have you heard of the battery box Torklift? They(ABCS of RV) did a install on dvd.
well I have 2 6volt battery and found torklift has a bigger on for 6 volts (4-5)(#A7709) it measures 59" length 8" W and 13" Tall. It fits across the frame like the other boxes but will overlap 9" on each side. the 4 6 volt battery 61 lbs x 4=244lbs. can this be done on the front of the trailer? With 4 6volt batterys and solar, I could stay out for ever.LOL. well thanks for listening or reading anyway. Stay warm and save trips.
I didn't use the Torklift box, but did this exact mod with a truck bed side rail box. The cost for the box was quite a bit less and the 4 trojans fit nice and snug. I drilled a couple 2" vent holes and inserted louvered vent covers into them. Also drilled a few small drain holes in the bottom in case water got into the box.
