Ok so here is something interesting I just did a search on mounting batteries in different orientations Seems like SLA, AGMS both can be mounted in any orientation except upside down The results of my search was scatter across different forums

@highdessertranger that would be the floor.. could I raise it yes, and I thought about it.. But I also would need to adjust everything else.. the bed frame and the cabinets. and I just don't want to get into that @mrnoodly, that is very good to know. @kklowell I am guessing you are talking...

Well since my last sketch was confusing people..  Here is a new sketch..  as I stated in the other thread. I may add a fuse panel, but I believe that would be after the house battery.

My 2 cents, I am a novice on this subject as many of you know.. But $2000 budget seems to be pretty steep.. Wiring honestly is not that bad, take your time and do things right. If you don't know ask I am putting together a system that will cost about 1/3 of what your budget is.. I will...

***UUPDATE*** So I too my van to a different body shop, He looked at the damage, without putting the van on an alignment machine, he seems to think nothing is out of alignment.. 100% accurate no, But it does confirm my thoughts also.. He is going to help me out, probably only charge me a...

I spoke to My insurance company, out of florida, and there are no restrictions.. does not matter if the other insurance company totaled it or not.

Yes I agree, I could probably fight for more, NO doubt in my mind, I have spoken to a lawyer about this.. and I will try to speak to someone again before I sign the check  But people each state has different legislation for no fault accidents.. the legislation is not a universal deal..

No I do not need to buy it from the Insurance company, I have already spoke to them, they are sending me a check minus what a junk yard would talk for it..

Each state is different, I also believe the age of the vehicle comes to play..
