Golf cart battery conversion
Has anyone done a conversion from the 8 12 volt house batteries to 6 or 8 6 volt
golf cart batteries on an early 90's Bird? I have adequate pullout tray space
for all but height as the 6 volt are 11" tall and won't quite fit. Any
suggestions on making it work?

Thanks,

My Golf Car batteries in my Allegro Bus are 10" tall including the caps. They are Interstate Powerfast from Sam's Club. $68 each.

I had that job done on my 94 by Triangle RV of Sydney BC. They moved the 2800Watt Inverter up and lowered the lower tray. This made room for the taller 6 Volt Golf Carts. They lowered the bottom tray by adding two inch square tubing on each side of the tray. If you don't wish to construct such an assembly you could buy my old one. I contacted Randy Dupree to see if he'd sell it. It's for sale and you can contact him at 352 538-3435.

Thanks to all for the replies! I'll give Randy a call as well as check out the
Interstate 10" tall batteries.
