Optima Battery?

Hey guys, I just bought an Optima Yellow top and was wondering from you guys

that have installed aftermarket batteries that are shorter in length, what did you

guys do for bracing? Is there a different bracket I can get to hold it stable?

if i dont forget again ill post a pic today.

what you do is use the same bracket but move it back. if you look at the battery tray you will see another hole for the screew furthere back. use that one. the optima battery is strong so screew it down. you will if i remember correctly flip or something like that the bracket that holds the battery down.
