Got a few minutes today to mess with the car so i tucked the hood latch cable..nothing major but that thing was an eye sore..
And of course stangnet mobile is telling me the image is too large..
I ordered a battery relocation kit that shoulda been here at the end of the week but since the one person in our purchasing "department" quit, the tard that was ordering it had it ship to our other store....dehhh
Once i get the battery relocated and put together that when im gonna tuck the fuse box...i dont wanna do a whole mess of things at once since itll be harder to track down a problem if one arises...i figure if i relocate the battery and the csr dont start then i have a pretty good idea at what to look at for the problem..
Ill try and get that pic loades in a sec

Battery relocated!
Im not going to tie it down until the car starts...i still gotta buy a few things to tie in a couple grounds at the front of the car and it should start..
Im not sure how im gonna bolt the rods that hold the battery box in without dropping the tank...i really dont want to drop the tank....any suggestions?

J- bolts or L-bolts?
Good call...i might be able to bend the supplied rods and do that...thnks
Thats a tad bit too much more work than i wanna put into it lol....plus i kinda like the aluminum look...itll look better when the carpeting is back in the trunk....but thats a different project lol

If you can't use the supplied bolts. Head to Ace and get some All thread. That way, when you bend it to hold it down. you can run a washer and nut down to keep it from falling through the trunk floor and on top of the gas tank when you undo the lid.

I may go that route..
Last time i had the tank down the car was on a lift so it wasnt that bad of a job...wouldnt be too hard to do now except my ja k is leaking hydraulic fluid so it will slowly let down if somwthing heavy enough is on it..thats y i dont wanna drop the tank right now cause the jack prolly wont hold it and its just me doing this
