To say that the battery tray in my '84 Ranger was useless would be an understatement:
So I fabbed one up over the summer while replacing the auto with a 5-speed and rebuilding the 2.8. It's so study I actually jumped on it and it didn't budge. Another plus, the battery didn't move an inch during my recent wreck @ about 30mph: http://www.therangerstation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=157672 I know for a fact the previous tray would of tossed the battery.
Making a battery tray is not a big deal compared to what everyone else here has done, but I figured yall would like to see the pics anyways.
