    At first I was going to say it better not be because it won't work with mine.

    But if it is and it's tube maybe they can bend it out a bit so it will work with my bedsides.

    I don't have a spare 400 bucks but I need a battery. Mine is pretty much dead every morning. Haha

    So depending on what I decide to do I need to plan which battery type.

    What are you saying? I have it resting on the exhaust to keep it warm. That way the electrons move faster.

    (It's not like that anymore)

    I've run odyssey batteries on a few cars now (mainly the super small light weight ones) and haven't ever had issues. Optimas used to be sweet batteries but back when I worked at a 4wd shop they changed something and they sucked. I don't know if that's been resolved. I think this is a better battery though

    Too big and heavy. I've read too many threads of sheet metal tearing with that battery. And my truck is already too heavy. That's part why I'm on the fence about dual. Adding a solar panel will probably add a little less but still.

    I sold the locked ones. 260 shipped! Or something like that.

    These I'll probably be selling in a few weeks when they don't fit. :rofl:
