Pics of the lightweight battery and box Got the box back from being powdercoated, my camera here at work isn't the best, but it gives you and idea of the box. Fits in the stock battery location and uses the stock battery hold downs. I'm having some adapter lugs machined today so that I can use my stock battery cables and connectors. Box weighs just a touch over a pound and the battery is 14lbs. MUCH lighter than the stock stuff... looks cool too.

That's a good weight loss. AThat along with a tubular k member and a arms would probably save about 70 lbs off the nose.... and lose no real important items. About the same weight as a 6 pt cage. I know what I need to do to keep my car at the same weight now. You could probably sell those boxes with the battery and terminal as a complete kit... easily. Let me know the bill once you come up with a price.... should you decicde to market it ( or sell them like the darkage bracket

I can have some more of them made, I don't know a total price yet.. because I haven't gotten the bill on the adapter lugs that will let me use the factory battery terminals.
