A good battery lockdown.
Worked great for me. Very sturdy.

It fits the Fit
It fits, it works. What more is there? I no longer have to use six ratchet straps, bailing wire, and a monkey to hold the battery down.

Basic and functional.
This product is a functional replacement for broken J hooks on a Toyota Tundra. There isn't anything fancy about the product, just a set of basic J hooks, nuts and washers.

Good price
Work as advertised

Works as intended. Universal.
This will not work for everyone in every application. It's a universal style and may be too short or too long for some or the hook may be wrong for others. It was cheap and worked for a car to flip. However, if you have a specialty car by the specialty part. The vendor was kind enough to send me five in one box instead of just one like I had ordered.

NO TO 96 era civics
I’m restoring a 96 civic these were listed as fitting my vehicle, they didn’t they were about 1 1/2” too short. I didn’t have anything to compare it to so I took the word of Amazon ended up buying twice and at a higher price this time at pep boys but hey they worked

Just tight
Fit my battery perfectly. Sturdy hold and easy to install.

These are pretty short!
I'll order longer ones for my Toyota. They did not fit a 2001 Sienna (too short). I should've measured twice! Ratings are all high, but they did not work for my current project. I will reorder longer J Hooks.

Went to change the car battery in a 2015 Honda Fit (converted to standard 51R size and without the battery box cover) and found the existing j hooks rusted along with the bolts. I was able to remove the existing hooks but the rust prevented me from reinstalling. This 8" replacement worked perfectly with the existing hold down bar and depth without the battery box.

Easy to use, worked well on a 2015 Acura TL. On one side of the Acura battery holder I couldn't use the foam washer, but it holds fine. I like that it has wingnuts so they're easier to install and remove whenever necessary.

Rods came with soft washers which is an added bonus.
