ebinmaine 67,603 #1 Posted July 20, 2021 We're looking at the possibility of having a Tecumseh 10 horse in a short frame tractor which means we need to lose about an inch or more of battery width front to back. Motorcycle application? Wheelchair? Something like that... I've seen it done I just don't know how. Thoughts or suggestions?. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 27,602 #2 Posted July 20, 2021 (edited) Radpferd is sporting an Interstate YTX20HL-BS battery. This would be a replacement battery for a Harley Davidson FXSTC as well as a few other FX models. Edited July 20, 2021 by Achto 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roadapples 6,983 #10 Posted July 20, 2021 I have a car battery in my C160 with the loader. When I added gear reduction steering, I moved the battery under the seat... 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazyredhorse 295 #11 Posted July 20, 2021 (edited) if you did fx battery could use like a 73 tray like this.tabs on bottom cut off.strap goes over battery get used or new complete chrome kits n covers and tray for cool.also there was a kick fx and electric start might be different battery and tray.i think fxe was electric start.
