We did that with the 1 that I did; since it was going to be a small farm utility vehicle we made an (over-complicated) hydraulic lift for the bed & mounted the batteries down along the inside of the frame on both sides. The subsequent 2 owners I knew of did use that function for a lightweight dump truck, but mostly, it made checking & servicing all of those golf cart batteries much easier. I saw it done on another one without the hydraulics, but it took more muscle power than most people could do by themselves. It is SO worth the work & expense though to, 1) reclaim the usable bed space, &, 2) lower the center of gravity (made it handle much better). Michael B
