why metal?? Why not wood?? Plastic trays are a dime a dozen, so to speak.
If the engine compartment floor is rotten, cut out the rust, spot weld some
sheet metal, and put the plastic tray on top of that. I still say that $$45
for a battery tray is a scam. You could buy something meaningful with that
jack.
