Default Battery Relocating.....pics and comments

I was thinking of relocating my battery to the rear asap to get some of the weight from the front and later getting a braille or something!!!!!

Does anyone have any pics of the battery in the rear....?
Does anybody know of any battery mounts or a good place to mount it at......?

Thanks in advance guys/girls!

+1. you could move 20 pounds to the back but your gonna add 5-7 in cabling to do it... not worth the hassle.

Default thanks

ok i see some of yall points all well noted
i think just getting the lightweight battery would do well

i heard of this braille dude on the forum to never go directly through him!

Also i think some batteries doesnt use that acid for the reason of preventing fires

But adding more room to the Z's engine bay sounds so sweet.....more room for performance mods
