The battery in my 02 croaked so went to replace it and noticed the battery tray has a crack in it right about where the retaining bolt is resulting in a loose fit of the battery :shock: Is there a way to fit it or strap the battery down better?The tray itself isn't the best quality, rather flimsy.

thanks

David

Short of fabricating a new one, I would try to cut a couple slots somewhere on it to slip a small ratchet strap thru and keep it held down.

pixeldzn,

That sounds like a plan and much better securing method that the original. As this happened on the road I used duct tape to keep it from moving around till I got home.
Was really surprised how flimsy that thing is ,the one on my '95 Cherokee is considerably more robust.

Thanks for the tip

David
