    Battery Holddown

    Can anyone post a picture of the battery hold-down hardware for a Series III? All I have is the j-bolt dangling around and a floor mat to keep it from arcing on the underside of the hood during those extra bumpy rides.

          Looks like it just needs the battery bracket and a wing nut. Two J-bolts and wing nuts, or just one?

            According to the diagram, 2 (they only show one in the drawing but have a "(2)" next to the respective part numbers).

              Two works. I placed one on the far back left...and the front right. I believe that two on the back might even work better.
