Chucky,

I was looking at the battery box, not side board locks. Any thoughts?

I have a very technical version of a Battery Box Lock in the picture below.
Chain wraps around the frame.
Loop at the air tank drains.
I could upgrade it with some green paint.

Ohhhh and I almost forgot - the locking device design is Patent Pending

Oh i misunderstood thats easy get a big piece of threadall and drill a hole in the center of the battery box bottom put the threadall in the hole put a nut under the box and one on the inside to stand the rod straight up then put a nut and washer near the top of the rod then drill a hole in the lid in the center then slide the lid over the rod put the 2 ears in the back into the slot then lower the lid down over the rod and rest on the washer /nut drill a hole thru the end of the threadall to where you can put a padlock thru the hole so you cant get the lid off
