The original battery box was looking a little weathered so I built a new one out of 20 Gage steel. If it lasts half as long as the original it’ll be worth it.

Looks good.  I like that lid latch! Much more convenient than the 4 studs and nuts.  Looks like you got the loader frame mounted OK.

I did get the loader mounted Phil thanks very much. I usually pull one cable off the battery when parked, so a quick access cover seemed to make sense.

Brilliant idea that latch. I need to do battery boxes on a B & a CA & a WD45 and I'm no tinsmith.
