Gary Lewis Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I wonder how different the relay locations are between the two generations? My battery tray was comfortably away from my starter relay (when I had one) I don't know. I didn't keep that fender from Huck, the '90 F250, so can't check. But can you measure where the holes were? Maybe I can figure it out on BB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to replace mine a couple years ago...what a terrible design they were, with the tray mounted UNDER the fender liner. Those things rusted and fell apart here so fast I've never seen one still intact to this day. Anyway...they are available as are the hold down rods and top brackets, etc. Rembrandt, good eye. Yes when I first got the truck the battery was just laying loose on top of the fender, a recipe for disaster! When I inspected the underside I noted that everything was structurally sound and only the angle brackets protruding up through the fender was missing. I ran a strap from the bottom up through the slots and it hold the battery very snug. I do have a NOS top bracket I purchased a while back thinking I was going to start replacing the missing pieces but other items have priority as it’s no longer a safety concern.

I get 13 1/2" from where I THINK the front of the radiator support should be. (Mine's out, but I think I can tell.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
