Anybody Get Alternative Battery Mounting Kit with TN?

I mentioned this in DocBob's thread regarding his TN battery. My TN75D came with a battery tray and a couple of rods in a grain sack. When I asked the dealer about it he told me that they were supplied in case I wanted to use a 'conventional" battery. Did anybody else get these parts?

I bought my TN75 new in 2003 and I did not get this, but would love to see a picture of the kit if you have time. I wonder if it is a kit for the cab models so one can install dual batteries if needed

There is no dual battery option for cab models. The kit allows proper installation of a North American spec battery. Kit should also include 4 male hydraulic hose tips and Cat I lower link balls for the hitch. When delivered to the dealership, the kit also contains the SMV emblem. Most dealers are ambitious enough to install the emblem on the tractor before they completely misplace the rest of the kit.

Yup, that's what was in my kit. My SMV was installed. I haven't had a chance to take a photo since I'm not at my farm and also I'm not quite sure where it is right now. BTW, even though I use a lot of Cat I attachments, I find it easier to use reducing sleeves.
