Need a new battery for the GunRunner. The Yellow top was pretty good but won’t hold a charge anymore. Pretty sure I won this battery at the 2008 Razorback Ramble. It sat in my garage for almost two years before I installed it and fired right up.

What is recommended for a rig with a winch that gets used at events and sits for months at a time? Probably should get a trickle charger “battery tender” as well?

Thanks

Since that one lasted 10 years one would think you would be busting down the door for another one.

That said, get a good Napa one from Chris and peel out. You can buy 3 for the price of an optima.

Does NAPA have a deep cycle?

I need a battery I can run down and charge back up many times without killing it.

Yes.

Any recommendations on a battery tender I can leave plugged in constantly and not worry about overcharging or exploding? What do you guys use?

 

[jynx]

I have this one and I use it alot. It will do AGM and regular lead acid. I keep something on it about all the time.

I think optima makes one too and somewhere @Bomar recommended one, maybe a CTEK. Can't remember for sure.

 

[wngrog]

I have a CTEK and it’s awesome. It does not take long to get behind with this line up here.

Recently the 100 did not get driven for 100 days. I fixed that though. The CTEK
Woke it up.

I run Battery Tenders on both of my rigs. Hindsight being 20/20 I would have bought cheaper units. Oh well... CT called me when he was putting a water pump on my 40 and said "dude you need a battery. Yours is 7 years old!" One of his Interstate's that he put in it. I'm sure it lasted that long due to the Tender. Money well spent.

I had a Battery Tender Jr. for years, then it went out. Then, I used a CTEK for years and liked it.....then it went kaput. I have a Battery Tender once again (Battery Tender Plus), and it works fine. Seems like it's just a matter of time until you're gonna have to replace them.

Are the above battery tenders okay for a couple of redtop Optimas? Optima would have me believe that their $250 tender is the only way to keep Optimas tended.

 

[FJ60Cam]

I’ve brought several AGM batteries back from the dead with my NAPA charger set to trickle. Just leave it for a week or two.

 

[wngrog]

Yes. I use them on Optima

Anybody got a red lens for a drivers side clearance light for a 40? I broke mine out a month ago with a shovel.... No, I wasn't mad. Hate to buy a whole light assembly just for the lens. Holla if you have one please!

What are my transmission options to replace the 3 on the Tree I have in my ‘69? Is a h42 or h55 a direct swap in?

 

[jynx]

H55 would have the extension housing for 5th, so not straight bolt in. I think an H42 without the extension housing would be. I'm kinda looking into this too because I'm looking at a similar swap on the pig.

I found a thread the other day. Let me see if I can find the link.

It was here: Cruiser Outfitters

You can mate your 3 speed case to an H42. Cruiser Outfitters sells the parts.

I’ve got a good H42 here with a 4 speed case that needs to be rebuilt I’ll sell cheap. I would go through both of them and put fresh stuff in. It’s a MUCH easier swap than H55

You will also need a 2F bellhousing.
