With teardrops, there's only one right way to do something. And the tongue box is the right way. I'm sure you all agree. In fact, I INSIST you do. :FNP

Im sorry going to have to be a little different.

I put mine in the galley in the center. I am glad I did on the second trip my trailer came off teh hitch and slammed into the back of my jeep. destroyed teh tongue box.

Them yellow things are 4 Group 31 batteries. Using a torsion axle makes it easy to get the battery's weight well placed. A little over 1/3rd of the battery bank's weight is in front of the center line of the wheel spindles. It's a former frame design for a TTT I'm designing. Blue is high strength steel, and gray is aluminum. I've now embedded the frame into the SIP floors.
