Battery hold down?

Can anyone recommend a good battery hold down? I have an 841 and the battery currently installed is 12v about 10" x 6.5". Pretty sure I have the original 6v battery box, given how much this battery hangs off the box. I wouldn't really care, but when I'm bouncing the tractor along, the battery likes to slide out and rest against the loader frame.

From the parts manual I gleaned two ford part numbers:
Nca10718 which is for the 6v, about 8"x6", and
311099 which is apparently 16 1/8" x 7 3/8"

I could rig something up with baling wire until I can buy a smaller 12v battery down the road, but maybe someone has a better fix? Thanks!
 
My 860 came with a rubber strap holding the battery. I have seen a lot of photos of old tractors using this method.
 
Yes. Mine was hooked into a hole in the gas tank support and a hole in the battery tray where a
bolt was supposed to go. I have replaced the bolt to tighten things up. Will have to find a new
attachment point when I put this thing back together.
