This link should take you to page 26 of my build thread: kzrider.com/forum/11-projects/340793-tes...d?limit=20&start=500

That shows where I start the battery box and continues into page 27. Hope that helps.

This link should take you to page 40 where you can see the bare frame with the battery box welded in place: kzrider.com/forum/11-projects/340793-tes...d?limit=20&start=780

Keep in mind that I am using an AGM battery which can be laid on it's side. Don't try this trick with a regular lead-acid battery.

Like testerossa's, I'm using an AGM battery mounted on its side. My shock comes up higher than most mono's so its a tighter fit.
