It's always something when I work on the Nomad.

Time for a new battery so I go to remove the old battery.
I go to remove the castle nuts on the battery hold down bracket.
One comes right off the other one is wiggly, the stud was cracked over half way thru. My guess was factory overtightened it.

It broke off flush so I just drilled and tapped it for a bolt from the top.

Just aggravating. :(
