Battery trays

[pomss Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close pomss]

I’m just looking at trays for the aux battery for a 2018 2.8L and deciding between the Vonnies, the TJM and the ARB. Haven’t seen the ARB in the flesh as it’s not in stock locally. Does anyone have a photo of the tray to see whether it’s worth the wait of ordering it in...

many thanks!

I have the TJM tray on my 2016. Fitted easily. Has done a lot of outback and desert work. No issues whatsoever with a 100 amp deepcycle battery. I like the fact that it has a brace to the Trump. I didn't have to move anything to fit it.

I have fitted a Vonnies tray to our '20 GXL. A couple of observations for what they're worth. Not the easiest chore to fit as it requires some holes to be drilled, panels to be removed and mounting nuts held in place underneath with double sided tape. The tray itself is very sturdy though a bit heavy, and the design appears to shield the aux battery from engine bay heat, which is probably a good thing. Heading out to Birdsville and the Gulf soon, so it will get a shakedown. Literally.

Not sure what 404PUG means by " I like the fact that it has a brace to the Trump". Personally, I avoid any connection to that bloke.

I'm sure there's a conspiracy theory about that. LOL

PS. The Matson battery clamps that come with the Vonnies tray need to be shortened to allow the bonnet to close. A bit of a disappointment in a "custom made" tray for the Prado.
