Finally got Summits battery box set up

rdharper02 · Sep 2, 2009

After a week of stop and go, I finally got my battery box set up. I decided to hide the wiring and place it on the drivers side. Absolute PITA. Let me know what you think.

looks pretty clean. Good job on the install.

Nice job, I like how you mounted the wires, lot cleaner than mine, A LOT.

I like how you did that, only thing is if you go to the track there gonna boot you for no switch

Thanks guys. I thought about the switch and left myself some wiggle room with the wiring. I wont have any track time in the near future and still need to swap the tranny before I do.

Better than the metal rattle box I have.

You're supposed to mount those on the passenger side

Nice job! Mine isn't hid quite that well....the wire actually runs along the rear shock tower brace.

If you ever go to do the switch, pm me or something. I can send you some pics of my setup. I basically used a few spacers and installed a flip down license plate bracket and mounted the switch behind it. At the track I can simply flip it down and expose the switch....off-track I flip it up and keep it hidden.

Like this probably...

Thanks Guys. Kevin, thats exactly what I needed to see. What did you guys use to space the plate out with?

Kevins89notch5.0 · Sep 5, 2009

I used rubber. It was the "[" shaped pieces of rubber that go under your metal radiator hold downs on a stock 5.0. I changed my radiator, and the rubber pieces would no longer fit. They were just laying around, so I trimmed a square piece from each, and they worked perfectly.

Thanks. I went around to some of the salvage yards in the area, hoping to score a plate holder, but no luck. Guess the majority of them are not open on the weekend, while the others are taking this as a holiday. Oh, well. Still trying to hunt up the write up done on the cut-off switch. I cant remember who it originated from. If anyone has a link, let me know.
