i believe my setup is the best from the above mentioned....

First i know that to offset the drivers weight is the best, and because the gas tank is centrally located in the car you cant consider its placement, therefore the best place would be on the passenger side. I mounted mine right behind the strut tower on the pass. side and instead of drilling through the ground i drilled a hole in the side of the battery box and then in the side of the wheel well. then simply threaded a nut and bolt through it and it holds wayyyy better than those stupid clips and straps they include. I didnt get the summit relocation kit instead i got the $8 battery box from oreillys. This works great and ive never had any problems with it. ill get some pics up soon im actually in the process of finishing spot welding my trunk and spraying it all with rhino-lining. the battery fits perfect in the corner there and the bolt doesnt get in the way of any wires, lines, tanks, or your wheel on the other side. any questions PM me or email me.

OT: isn't rhino lining really heavy? or am I thinking of another coating?
