Yep. I found the military-issue hold downs work fine for my Group 31 Exides from Tractor Supply. No modifications required.

Exactly. Pull the plugs from a gasser engine, hook up a good stout battery charger/jump starter, and you can turn that engine over til the cows come home. No, it won't start, but it will turn over. Cranks = turns over. Turns over does NOT equal "starts".

Some all-thread rod, a few 1/4-20 bolts & nuts, and some 1/2" or 3/4" angle iron works wonders. A drill and a hacksaw are all you need to get something workable. It may not be as pretty as some of the nice fab jobs I've seen here on SS, but it will get the job done.

Don't ask me how I know that..... (It has something to do with seeing that happens when a car battery blows up....) :mrgreen:

Now you know why bungie cords and ratchet straps are not good enough for holding down batteries. ;)
