Battery Box
« on: April 26, 2019, 01:17:23 PM »
Anyone build or buy a battery box?  I have a 92 4dr with the EDSE kit so water comes up through the strut tower and my battery gets corroded.  I thought maybe a battery box to keep it dry

What sort of battery do you have?  Automotive batteries generally do not "corrode" because they get wet, so I want to think what you're looking at is more likely to be a defective battery.

That may very well be - I took a look and it was 7 years old - I was shocked and then replaced it and added the brass connections so I should be good to go

thanks
