I wonder if that is normal? Are the batteries under too much pressure from the side panels? (pic attached) Maybe mine is just a fluke since I haven’t heard anyone else with a newer batch Sherman having this problem. Mine are the same. The closer to the edge, the more pronounced ribbing. Reason being that you tighten the screws near the edges so that part will touch first and the center part will just "bulge out" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually ground down the ribs located on the non-flat sections to well below the flat section to give plenty of clearance. Why did you ground down the ribs all the way up top only on the right side close to the edge? The components have the same layout on both packs so the left ribbing might be cut as well right? Would be nice to habe a transparent shell and transparent battery pack wrap, so one could see exactly where things collide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of this, the packs are a mirror image when fitted to the other side of the wheel... 4 hours ago, Boogieman said: so one could see exactly where things collide I know exactly where they collide. I have had a pack unwrapped on the bench and a trusty ruler. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
