    SLT Battery installation - AGM battery slightly shorter than lead-acid battery

    Is there a block or stand that is suppossed to go under the battery on the 1996 SLT 780?

    I'm either missing something or having a brain fart cause I can't tighten down the battery in the ski.

    I don't think there is a tray like some of the other models, just a pad that it sits on. Its about 1/2" thick or so and is a medium density rubber or something like that

    Well, figured it out. My AGM battery is shorter then the previous battery. Fixed it by just adding some nuts as spacers on top of the hold down bracket.
