Aluminum Battery Tray

Hey Guys

Since there’s currently no options for a 51r battery tray right now I had a friend of mine design a new tray. He has a small machine shop and is willing to make them for a pretty decent price. This is an interest thread only. Seeing if there’s anyone else who wants one. I’m in Canada so shipping will be a little more $$ but I think they’ll end up $150-175 range to your door. Machined from aluminum and will be a bolt in part. No modifications needed. Open to any comments and interest. Also including some of the drawings.

Great design using CNC billet, but it would make more sense for the battery tie down to be left to right instead front to back. and cross plate to be simple and more flat. It will be less machining time for a tie down part and should looks great.
