So I thought to myself, if I have to make a replacement, why should I use metal? That will just rust out again! So I dig out an old plastic bin and chop up the bottom to make a new battery box. After hours of stuffing around to make it fit, and lining it with metal straps to take the weight of the battery, I install the new unrustable battery box only to discover why it was made of metal in the first place...
The exhaust runs about 1" to the side of it.
