Bought a used Lifepower4 battery and the seller didn't have the server rack mount brackets. Signature Solar, and EG4 won't sell them to me so I'm here looking.

I would just buy some angle iron at the hardware store and make my own.

You might be able to get something designed for computer server racks. They are 19" as well and would probably work.

Are you asking about the front angle flange/Dog ears that bolt to the front end of the battery and into the server rack?

I have some steal corners from a shelf I was considering on using. Having something that isn't screwed in the front and read is better.

That would work if the holes line up.

You would have to drill and bolt it in from the side. I though about the rails that screw in from the front but then how do you screw the battery in?
The other idea is to put a rack shelf in the front and rear facing each other. You would have to make sure the battery would clear inside the shelves.
I am all about DIY but by the time you add it up a EG4 rack with free shipping is pretty sweet:

The original bracket is just a piece of angle. I would just make it the same way.
It bolts to the side of the battery. And then the front of the rack.

I thought you were talking about the side supports that the battery rest on.
Might not be big enough but check these out

Maybe, but too expensive in my opinion.
I could make a pair for $5.
