Not sure what youre calling rails, but the box doesn't slide anywhere. It's bolted down.
The odd looking bolts should resemble eyebolts and have a wingnut. The eyes hook through loops at each end of the box, and then swing up to fit into a notch at each end of the lid to the box, and the wingnuts clamp the lid down.
After battery box lids were lost or tossed or the boxes themselves rotted away, a lot of braided groundstraps appeared. Nothing wrong with them as long as you find a good ground for them. But they don't fit well through the notches that you should find in the lip of your new battery box. Original would have been cable, with battery termial at one end and an eyelet o the other to bolt to a good chasis ground. It passed from the battery through a rubber grommet to protect it from chafing on the lip of the battery box and on to chassis.
Don't know the length, but if your tractor is six-volt, you'll want something on the order of 0 or 00 gauge cable made to a suitable length to route out through that notch. The 4 gauge common to 12v cars etc. won't carry the amperage needed to turn a starter on 6v.
