Not my preferred way to go but they will work and give you some expansion room.

Has anyone ever noticed if when you lift the bed platform, you have access to the that cabinet from the top?
Lowering the batteries down from inside the camper would be a piece of cake.

And here I am, 12-years-later with the same dilemma and I'm now 75-years old and my back isn't any stronger. I can't believe that I am starting this all over again..... 
Does anyone know where I bought this battery box?

Looks like from Allied Battery, which I think is where I got mine (but can verify), but I don’t think they carry it anymore.
What kind of battery are you planning?

Take a look at the Trojan T-125s. They will fit in that box (they’re just slightly taller than the 105s), but will give you an extra 30 Ah or so…..I still have mine but will soon be putting in lithium (within a few weeks).
