Yeah, but Dave has a setup for up to 24 SDI 94Ah cells where all of them are over the front wheels in the existing battery tray. It’s a little DIY, but the best solution so far for those who really want to deal with the 00-04 GEMs.

Personally, I was glad to send to send the battery tray from my 02 to Dave for further testing and am really looking forward to pulling the last of the decent parts off my 02 LB in the next couple weeks and then finally getting to take my plasma cutter to the frame so I can sell it for scrap aluminum.
