Abstract: Integrated mounting systems for mounting electric drive components within electrified vehicles may include a cross brace assembly that mounts or supports one or more electric drive components relative to a vehicle frame. A cross brace assembly of the mounting system may include a cross brace, a first bridging side bracket, and a second bridging side bracket. The cross brace may be mounted to lower surfaces of vehicle frame rails and the bridging side brackets may be mounted to upper surfaces of the vehicle frame rails to provide a robust and serviceable mounting solution that evenly distributes vehicle loads.

Abstract: A motor vehicle according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a frame including a rail and an electrical distribution system routed at least partially through the rail. A method is also disclosed.

Abstract: This disclosure details exemplary insulating flexible membranes for use with vehicle high voltage modules. The high voltage modules may include any module that is adapted for supporting electric propulsion within the vehicle. The insulating flexible membranes may be attached to an exterior of a housing, to an interior of the housing, or may be disposed about a high voltage component housed inside the module. The insulating flexible membranes of this disclosure are configured to distort to prevent access to damaged high voltage components of the high voltage modules.
