If you have a WDH, measure to see if and how those boxes will fit.  I finally got mine to fit like i want but it was a pain.  The brackets for the WDH bars complicate the box attachment to the frame if you want it to sit down between the outer A frame.

I carry two 12V batteries on my R190.  I literally have to STUFF them in the tray.  I actually need about 3 more inches.  Does anyone know who sells a decent battery tray for trailer tongues?
