A wheelchair swing-arm is adapted to be pivotally connected to a wheelchair base frame and support a wheelchair drive wheel. A fender is supported in a substantially fixed position relative to the wheelchair swing-arm. A method for attaching a fender to a wheelchair includes the steps of providing a wheelchair having a base frame and a swing-arm pivotally connected to the base frame and a drive wheel motor supported by the swing-arm, and supporting a fender in a substantially fixed position relative to the swing-arm.

A wheelchair includes a base frame having a longitudinal axis, and a forward end and a rearward end joined by a first side frame and a second side frame, each side frame being generally parallel to the longitudinal axis. The wheelchair also includes a first motor and a second motor. A first mounting bracket is affixed on the first side frame and a second mounting bracket affixed on the second side frame. The first and second mounting brackets have a main body including a motor gear bore for securing the first motor or the second motor, a front tie down point directed toward the forward end of the frame, and a rear tie down point directed toward the rearward end of the frame.

The rear end of the battery box lid is releasably engageable with wheelchair frame to fix the rear end of the battery box lid relative to the rear end of the battery box bottom. The rear end of the battery box bottom may be fixed relative to the rear end of a battery box support. The battery box support may comprise braces each having a front and rear end respectively attached to a front and rear cross tube of the wheelchair. The battery box bottom may have a stepped profile that complimentary in shape to a stepped profile of the battery box lid. A wheelchair may be comprised of a battery mounting system as set forth above.
