headache rack questions

[thebat]

hey guys i have my modded green king hauler and i really would like to add a headache chain rack though heres what i want to know how do i get inside the truck to swap a battery or even plug unplug it i run 2s lipos for my power and im not going to charge those with them inside the truck how does everyone get around this issue thanks alot and also which chain rack should i get for it

[Lmackattack]

a simple way would be to just have 2 screws that secure it to the top of the frame flange. I bit of a PITA to change packs but not to bad.

I made two small aluminum brackets that hold the headache rack on my Globe Liner. One screw and it pops right off for access to the battery yet still strong enough to pick the truck up by the headache rack.

rig up a longer charge plug and let that hang under the truck, that way you never have to take it out

He doesn't want to charge it in the truck. I wouldn't charge one that's in any of my stuff either.

The one that is on eBay for doing an optimus prime truck is designed for the headache rack to slide off of it's two frame mounts.

I have made all my sleepers top off to open. Roof of the sleeper comes off quick. Takes some modification bus makes it real easy to access inside.

I don't have any pictures of the removable top right now. Will add to my Aeromax overhaul thread.

okay thanks.

The other thing is a king hauler is a one piece body where the aeromax is a two piece. So unless he wants to cut the roof of the bunk it's not as simple as the aeromax would be.
