    How are you guys tying down your optima batteries?

    I recently installed a red top on my Tundra and found that the stock tie down was to tall to hold down the much smaller optima. I searched on this forum but was not able to find any ideas. Thanks for the help.

    The last Optima I had came with a spacer tray from the factory as part of the packaging

    Maybe check to see if you tossed it?

    I had to use half of the spacer that came with mine (it came in 2 pieces) and it worked just fine. I did notice the factory battery tie down hooks are different lengths and I put them in backwards at first so maybe check that as well?
