Battery replacement and tray

<< < (2/4) > >>

Steve Huber:
John,
Metal stock used is very common so most welding shops should be able to repair your tray.

Whether the old one is sandblasted or you have a new one made, may I suggest you apply coats of black POR-15 paint.  It is a super tough coating that I've found quite resistant to damage and rust through.  I used it when I refurbished the badly rusted and acid-eaten battery tray on our old Pace Arrow, and no hint of corrosion ever appeared there again.

You can get everything you need, including pre-treatment products and instructions, at www.por15.com, or via the BAC's portal to Amazon.

Go to the main BAC website (not this Forum) and you'll find a link to Amazon on the right side of the page.

Thank you....I'll do that 8).

Joel Ashley:
POR-15 reacts with existing rust to work best, so you may be able to save the old tray by simply cleaning it of dirt and loose rust, then using the pretreatment products as directed.  Everything you may need should be in the $21 kit on the POR-15 website.  I didn't look, so I don't know if the kit is on Amazon.
