Hey everyone, I ordered a new E-body battery tray due to mine being, rusted out. I ordered 2, one from Year one, and the other from another company. (cant remember who). I received both, and they are manufactured from the same place. My problem is, that they are not the same as my original and wont bolt up the same. The stamping are a little different, and the bolt holes are similar, but still different. I was wondering if anybody has ran across this problem on their T/A or AAR. Thanks for the help, Ill get some pics of the trays a little later today.

I've seen the repops with the bolt hole in the wrong spot. Also, I've seen some that are correct too. Can't remember who had the correct one. But I just lined up a repop I had in stock and it's wrong. Sorry I can't help more.

Well, you might not like this but, you have three holes to drill and that thing is workable. You have yours for a pattern. It's not the way I like to have to do things either, but it's better than nothing at all. Send Year-One a bill for 2 hours labor.

I could drill holes, but the impressed sections are way different, and unfortunately, one of the raised sections is where I would need to drill a hole for the bolt which wouldn't allow the battery to sit flat. Im going to check out the one above. Thanks guys

Just went and looked at both listed above. Im going to go with the Hiltop tray, little spendy and $200, but its NOS and will be exactly what is needed. Thanks everyone for the help!! Wish repop would step up their game a bit
