Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) need new batteries

[Richterno1]

I'm looking for the biggest/best battery that will fit in the tray with out any modification. I don't mind a snug fit but really don't want to have to cut anything. please provide part numbers.

Oo. Thanks for you help...

I am very satisfied with Optima Red Tops.

Same thing here. Optima Red Tops. The heat down here is hard on batteries and the Opitmas don't have the problems that regular lead acid batteries do.

Yea, the RED Tops would do great. Got two in my jeep. Only thing I would ever trust in the middle of the woods at 1 in the morning.

how are the red tops in 40 below?

Check out the Odyssey batteries. Dry cell, not gel. Pleased with mine, though a bit pricey.

Wyoming Cowboy - Next time it gets to 40 below here in Texas I'll let you know.

Have you tried to desulfate your old one's? Might be worth a try.

I've been here forty years and the lowest has been about 5 above. Most years it barely gets below 32. I saw 80 below in Florida but it was in a climatic hargar.
