Battery case
While I was removing my 6 year old battery for replacement I broke the rusted bolt that holds the bracket to secure battery. Any suggestions on how to get bolt out of battery case or how to secure new battery would be appreciated

Pick up a new battery tray at your local parts store. They are cheap.

I did the same thing. Is the bolt sticking through the bottom? Mine was and I was able to turn it out with a vise grip. Make sure to spray lots of penetrating oil on it and let it sit for awhile.

I did that very same thing about a year ago. I just jammed the bracket back in place and left it that way. It's been just fine.
