    Yellowtop Battery is to small for the OEM mount. It seems to slide around quite a bit even when the screw is screwed in. Any suggestion on how to make it fir a little better?

    Re: Yellowtop Battery is to small for the OEM mount

    Your yellow top should've came with an assortment of brackets that snap onto the bottom of the battery to make it fit different size locations. For example my mom's Grand Cherokee take a size 65 battery. There was one plastic strip that came with the bracket (labeled for size 65) that snapped onto the side of the battery and made it fit securely in the stock bracket. If your battery didn't come with the brackets, take it back. I got hers at Advance Auto.
