Anyone ever replace a battery tray?
I think I need to replace my battery tray. It looks to be spot welded in (cant really tell). Does anyone have any recommendations on removing it? Is there an aftermarket one available? I maybe able to repair this one but I just don't know at this time. Thanks

Mine is riddled with rust and needs to come out as well before the cancer spreads. Can you elaborate on "Classic"?? Is there a website...or a publication...part #'s??? Also is the tray they offer a reproduction part that will fit the same way? or will I have to modify. Thanks.

I just cut mine out with a grinding wheel and welded a sheet of 14 ga. in place. I drilled drainage holes and mounting holes. After paint is looks pretty good.
