Battery holddown

[riderdan]

So, in my fiddling around to solve my generator problem, I realized that the two civilian batteries under the seat are just loose in there

What have you done to hold these down? I'll eventually switch to the correct batteries and hold down, but for the moment I need a solution.

There is a frame with J bolts OE. A temp solution is wood blocks / 2x4's ?

If you don't have J Bolts, I used a grade 8 bolt and put a bent on it, also try to use self locking nuts
For the battery , you can buy a plastic tray kit that keeps them in place.
This is the set up that I have
