Well I've attached a couple things to the battery - Mini Beast and Battery Tender.

Does anyone have a good tip for lifting and propping the battery up 2 - 3 inches?
It's a bear to get a hold of.

My batteries on the golf cart have a slots on the top sides and they make a handle that grabs the sides to make lifting out of tight spots easier.

 

yep...look on the carb side by the oil fill...you can see the bottom of the batt box...lift the batt with the cables as a bud pokes a long flat screwdriver in between the bottom of the batt box and the bottom of the batt...have him hold it there till youre done
