I actually picked up a 34R today but it doesn't have a spacer with it. How do you get one, I know one can be made easily. I emailed Optima via the contact email address on their website.

I bought the Exide XCD. It is very similar to the Optima but has its connector poles in the center of the battery so it can be turned any way and fits our cables ok but is a little bit of a stretch. It also has the extra terminals on the side if you need them for accessories. It is a deep cycle too.
Instead of using a spacer on the bottom, I straightened the hold down top piece somewhat and put two small 1/4" thick pieces of wood to take up the balance of space and the battery sits in it's original tray and looks and works just fine. It's a very secure hold down this way.
