You got me there Nickie!

Man that's a pretty tight squeeze.  I guess I'm just not willing to give up my
trusty stock bottle jack to something really useful like another battery.
<grin>  BTW, I like the custom bracket you made bolted to the top of the A/C
compressor to mount your ancillary items.  Nice touch.
