Battery Hold Down Problem Solved
 
Well, I figured out how to hold down my battery. I just went to the store, and went with the dual "J" hook idea. The top cross bar was part of a different kit, and the "J" hooks were sold in another kit. So I bought one of each, and combined. The only problem I ran into was that the battery was a litle over 9" tall, and the hooks only came in 8" and 10" lengths. Luckily, the 10" ones werent too long, and dont hit the hood. The only thing I had to change, was I had to bend the "J" hook out to an "L" hook so that it would slide under the coil side of the battery tray. The one on the radiator side, however, fit very well. So here are some pics for you guys to enjoy, we all know how much you guys like pictures :).
