saggy butt cured

Put in some more time working on the rear rack. Test mounted the batts and the car sits nice and level with everything mounted as far forward as possible (snug against the rear seatback). Thumbs up - cured the ForkenSwift butt sag!

Rack will be done and secure by the end of the week. Next on the list is cutting cables to the proper lengths and making new lugs for the cut ends.
