They must be tipped to remove or install. The outside edge will have to be higher than the inside or middle of the cart end to remove them.
If you have a strap as suggested just grab it off center so the outside edge is considerably higher than the inside and they will thread themselves out...

dracor,

I have the four battery (Trojans) 48 volt setup and recently removed battery #s 2 & 3. This would have made it easier to remove #s 1 & 4. However, since you may not want to go that far, a strap on both ends may be the best solution for your particular application.

Are we talking about using a battery strap like this?

The one thing with the strap I posted above is its made for a top post battery. The cart batteries use a top post stud so I guess you would have to use a nut and fender washer to attach the strap. And a good strap since the 12v weigh about 80 pounds each

I use those plastic wire ties. I can pull the battery out with my finger enough to grab with my hands
