Battery Box 85 GMC Truck...
Looking for input on a better battery box for my 85 GMC K1500 truck. The factory unit actually ripped off the inner fender mounting locations. I use this truck on a rough road to our Adirondack camp. Anything that can come loose or break will happen on this road.
 Perhaps there is an aftermarket unit that would be stronger...ideally something that the battery can actually sit in, as opposed to just the simple tray with rubber grommet and a single bolt. Any ideas are appreciated. -wilma

You might check out the Dorman heavy-duty battery tray or GM-style steel replacements made for off-road builds. A lot of guys have had good luck with Summit Racing or LMC Truck options, they’re sturdier and let the battery sit more securely. You may have to try them out.
