The original install was a little shady, as they just took the front fender bracket and modified it to work in the rear. We made the more rigid welded construction early on at the behest of the NHRA tech inspectors, who were not comfortable with the original setup.

You can see the battery installation blocks the location for the spare tire and jack tool hardware.
The car was delivered with three 7.75 whitewalls and one 7.75 redline on the ground, and a 7.35 whitewall loose in the back for a spare.
