I have had a nightmare that I am driving along and my battery tray falls to the ground. I am sure it is manufactured by the same company that manufactured the generator slide. I have not been able to find the exact supplier. but here are some guys who make custom tray slides.

Dave,
It might be the bean dip that's causing the nightmares.

Dave,

Did you have a problem with your generator tray falling out? I tried to roll mine out so I could change the plugs in the engine and when I removed the bolts, the tray wouldn't move out. I'm sure it's just stuck with crud but I chickened out on trying to roll it out because that sucker must be heavy. Should it be ok if I can get it loose?

No Keith, I have a problem with my battery tray. It has slightly bowed in the center and a screw that is there gets caught on the frame when I try to slide it back in. So I have to get down and push up the center when I slide it in.

I have noticed substantial rust so I am getting a little nervous. About 4 on a scale of 1-10.

Ok Dave,

Now I understand. If you could find a piece of steel about 1/8 " thick cut to the size of your tray and just lay it in there I wonder if that would help your problem?

Does your gen set sit on a slide out tray?
