Battery mount on a V-nose?

Hello all,

I have a question! Has anybody ever mounted a battery (box) on the front of a v-nose cargo trailer? I am thinking that there isn't much (or not even enough) room to do so. :thinking:

Maybe it would be possible to weld some angle iron off of one side of the tongue to accomodate a battery!

Any ideas?

I would be afraid to have it off to the side of the tounge it may get pinched between the truck and trailer if you get in a tight spot.

I was thinking that could be a problem when I turn sharp.

Take a pic and post it - John may be able to figure something out... He's a welder from way back and may have ideas about "tucking" things in.
