Important product information

Secure your vehicle battery to prevent problems on future road trips. It’s common for battery clamps to rust in this area, so if yours is looking a bit worse for wear, we advise you replace it soon. This clamp follows the contours of your driver’s side rear floor pan. Locate the battery site on your floor pan by the pre-installed plate and threaded bolt. The metal plate provides a point for the battery to be ‘butt up against’.

Rest the battery against this plate, so the clamp can be installed. Once the clamp is fixed, it applies opposing pressure to the floor pan plate. The clamp is designed with a protruding tab, which secures the lip on your battery, to the vehicle floor. These forces on the battery box are what keep it still as you drive. 

Bracket installation

Secure the clamp via the threaded bolt, already fixed to your floor pan. This goes through the hole as seen in the centre of the clamp. Fix to the floor pan by using a nut. Check the nut is fixed securely, to ensure the clamp provides sufficient pressure to the battery lip.
