biggest battery without modification

[harlowmaverick]

ok guys, whats the biggest battery that can be fitted with out modification onto a terrano II 3.0 2003
the battery fitted to mine just seems tiny and there is pleanty of space left on the battery tray.
im sure that i have the correct battery fitted but if i need to replace it i would like to get the biggest that i can for future use (i.e. winch, more lights etc etc)

Remember to check that the live terminal will be on the RHS of the vehicle? I bought a battery listed as a 'direct replacement' and the terminals were the opposite way round when I went to fit it. . . . . the battery itself fitted just fine, but it was a PITA re-routing the cables as there's so little play

110 amp hour and a 1000 odd cca. It says leisure battery on it Rick doesn't approve, but it's done me well

Nooooooooooooooooooo Pete you have a start battery, as long as you do not ever discharge it to 50% more than once it will be fine, Rick

I fitted one from my local motor factor which they said was a direct replacement, battery fitted in tray no problem but positive lead ( well one on the left) would not stretch far enough. I removed expansion bottle to reroute but wasnt worth the hassle and took it back and got a slightly smaller one that was listed.

I've got the 110ah version of this from the same company and it's immense, don't think they stock that one anymore though

Fills the battery compartment and I've run loads of stuff off it including CB stuff and burners for hours on end and its cranked first flick of the key :thumb2
