Battery clamp
Here’s the battery clamp I bought from Classic Parts to use with my original battery tray and Napa 8424 (group 24) battery. It doesn’t come close to holding the battery down. What am I missing here? Is there different part I should buy?

Re: Battery clamp
I believe you have the clamp upside down.

Re: Battery clamp
Yes, flip it around. I made the same mistake with my first truck too.

Re: Battery clamp
Sure enough—now I see it! Needed a longer bolt to make that work. Thanks!
