The battery box for a 56 ford is in the passenger side floor of the truck. I cut some plate
and made three sides and a bottom. I went out and bought a 900 CC Battery and measured how tall it was and added
8" (Aprox) eventually I'll have two of these along with a high out up
alternator.
Anyway I built it with three sides because I left the back open so I could slide the
batteries out without going through the top. (Roll back the carpeting)
I used angle iron for the support coming off the frame.
I made my box big enough to hold two
batteries.
Also I will
probably run cable off of the post out to the side of the truck so I can jump
vehicles without having to
roll back the carpet and hook up the cables. This would also be a easy setup for re-charging the
batteries.
(Your truck will be different)
