2nd Chance Camaro - Let the Project Begin

[syborg tt]

Moving back to the battery tray I need to figure out a good way to support the tray without over engineering it. The goal is
to come up with something simple that you wouldn't notice when you look under the car. It also has to be smooth to prevent
chaffing on the heater hoses.

Back from Ace Hardware with some supplies for my concept.



Support Sleeve.



I need to thread a 3/8" stainless steel threaded rod into the bottom of the battery tray and anchor it to the core support bracket. You need
to drill the proper size hole for the 3/8" tap. If you don't have this Tap Cheat sheet it is worth saving this as I borrowed it from someone on one
of the BB forums years ago and have referenced it many times.







Drilling a hole in your Carbon Inner Fender is kinda nerve racking.









Concept # 1 -- Create a bracket the bolts to the existing core support bracket.





Concept # 2 -- However if I bend rod just a little bit to get it to reach
the core support bracket I can bolt it directly to it.
