The back has more clearance so no problem there. I think you'll be OK as your generator handle will be somewhat centered from front to back. Of course, we're assuming your box will be set up just like mine with no variance in measurements.

If they make my box smaller we will have to trade. LOL This is going to work out great. I post some pictures this fall when i get it done. Thanks again !!

thats not a problem the Honda has for rubber feet. I drill a 1/2'" deep in the plywood for the feet to sit in. Then a strap over the top. I don't use it much but its nice to have and it will be out of sight in there.with the the honda in there I should be fine on tongue weight, the new battery will be relocated to under the drivers side dinette beside the converter . this will also replace some of the tongue weight. this battery would weight between 30-52lbs depending on what size i get.
