I just got a Kinetik 1800 for under the hood. With the combination of the higher posts and stinger digital terminals, the hood now doesn't close without force. For clearance issues is it safe to take the tray out and just have it sit on the bare metal? I thought I remember hearing that it's not good for a battery to sit on concrete so I doubt the metal is ok. Thanks.

To clarify for anyone else, I would definitely NOT recommend not using a battery tray..Last year, my battery tray broke and my battery slid and made contact with my power steering reservoir and arced across and caught my hood insulation on fire and melted my power steering reservoir.
