My bus was converted to 12 volt and the battery just sits loose on the tray. I noticed the tail light connections are bent from the battery sliding into them and sometimes when I stop hard I hear a dull thump and wonder if it is the battery sliding forward. Is there a standard strap made that will work on a 12 volt battery and connect to the existing connections on the stock tray?

Thanks from Tony

my old bay had a neatly cut wooden frame onthe soare side to hold the gas bottle secure. you could make something like that for the battery if no strap available

Thanks Jules,

With all the 12 volt conversions out there, I figured someone has come up with maybe an alteration of the original strap or an aftermarket strap.
