Discovery 2 Dual Battery Tray:

$305

Dual battery tray for the Land Rover Discovery 2.

The tray is designed around a factory group 34 battery and a group 36r battery, both easily available and fairly cheap at Walmart. The 36r adds an additional 130AH to the system more then doubling the stock capacity. The space is really limited in the factory battery location when you turn the batteries 90 degrees so the group 36r moves the posts away from some hood structure near the fender and gives the positive terminals much more clearance by moving them towards the rear. There is an optional mount for a VSR that is seen in all the pics but can be excluded or left unwelded depending on how you would order it. The whole thing bolts in using the 6 factory battery box mounting bolts.

The part will be powder coated by Performance Kote. Custom colors are available.

I tried to make it completely bolt in but there is a bracket and bolt you have to modify. You can see them in the pic where they are painted red. The bolt is hidden behind the grill and passenger side horn. You can probably just grind these off on the truck if you wanted. I pulled and trimmed the bracket and bolt. You could just space the bolt with some washers under the head too.

For the wiring, the factory positive cable works but you'll need to create a new ground cable. I'm looking into making a wiring package add on but the wiring will be different if you have a VSR and depending on the accessories you're running.
