Battery in vehicle has died,need to replace it, it is an 11 plate 420 cold cranking amps.
The old battery fairly small & it seems plenty room to fit a larger more powerful battery
What are most people fitting??

Being its a 96, which side of the engine bay is it?

If its the passenger side then yeah you can fit a pretty big battery without much drama, just measure it the tray and the height and see what will fit

I beat the tray flat in mine and put a 620CCA in there.

Thanks Pico42 thats the sort of thing I was looking for.
Didnt think to flatten tray but great idea. Will look around for something in 620cc !

By the look of the size of that battery an optima d34 yellow top would be substantially smaller with a higher output 750cca and 55 amp hour.
All the dimensions are on there web site and you can pick them up for around $220 on eBay and kpd 4x4 dose thence a good price , it's been a couple of years since I brought on from kpd though.

I would do this too.
We deliberately decided on a cheaper ordinary battery because we didn't know when we would next use the vehicle - could be a year before we used it next. If we were in tha same location as the vehicle, we would drive the hell out of it and drop an optima in.
