34.5 * 933 for mains = 32188 in-lbs
-72 * 291 for front = -20952 in-lbs
add those together to get 11236 in-lbs
divide 11236 by 1224 lb empty weight to get 9.18 inches aft
I'd probably leave the battery where it is or if it is not bolted down
yet perhaps move it forward a little to the first convenient place to
mount it.
I have examples of forward limits and rearward limits at 1730 lb gross
if you need them.
