    I got a complete stock battery box and hold down bracket, from Scottie. So I go the clamp in the battery. But the battery's no longer have the portions on the case, which the hold down clamps grab onto. So how are you clamping your batteries down ?  Older cases had a ridge on the two short sides of the battery for clamping it down.
