Battery Tray

JR Battery Tray And Holddown Hardware:




The battery is placed in a steel tray located in the left front corner of the vehicle. A hole in the bottom of the battery tray is fitted with a battery temperature sensor.

The battery tray provides a secure mounting location and supports the battery. On some vehicles, the battery tray also provides the anchor point/s for the battery holddown hardware. The battery tray and the battery holddown hardware combine to secure and stabilize the battery in the engine compartment, which prevents battery movement during vehicle operation. Unrestrained battery movement during vehicle operation could result in damage to the vehicle, the battery, or both.
