Default Re: Correct battery tray/hold down sizes
Here are a few pictures of my battery tray. It was made for a 29NF battery. Has anyone ever seen a 1960 GMC with a 29NF Type Battery? Were they common at one time? When did GMC change the Battery trays to accept the modern type batteries? I had to cut and bend to get a modern battery in. Surely there is a fix that will look at least close to original, and still take the newer battery size. I do not care for the billet aftermarket stuff designed for the Optima Battery. They are great batteries, but I wish they had a NOS looking option. Any help greatly appreciated, Greg Mead
