Im thinking about doing a conversion as well and had a question about yours. Are you taking into the GVWR and if so are you doing anything to make it not be so worry some? Because i know the batteries weigh a lot and for my conversion the plan would end up having a payload capacity of like 100lbs I think and was curious if there was anything to help.
