If a battery is too big for the stock platform, I make a wider/longer platform and bolt it to the stock location.
When a battery is too small for the platform, I make a spacer to put beside it to take up the slack...usually moving the battery more toward the middle of the car.-Bob
To simplify removal/installation and keep the battery firmly anchored, some people use a tight rubber strap, with modified s-hooks. Faster batt swaps than with a threaded rod.....
