I searched, but the answer still eludes. Best aux battery for the FZJ80 for today.

I did search, and the blue top pops up. I found I can use a group 31, the 24 is the OE size. Diehard used to make the best but they discontinued them. What are my options now?

I recently put a 125 Ah Lifeline Group 31 (GPL-31XT) with some modifications to the battery box. Basically cutting the little slope out on the left side, and using spacers to move the box over an inch or two to make room by the fender.

Dump the electric winch for a hydraulic one. Ditch the ARB fridge for a new Pelican cooler. What is left that you need an aux battery for?

Actually people are using dry ice in these coolers. These aren't your grandfather's coolers.

If you can actually find dry ice...which again you won't find in the Yukon, Labrador, North woods of Maine or Moab.

My son and I had ice cream while camping last night. Thanks to my freezer!

I have heard that you have to pack very careful as it is so cold it will blow up cans and freeze anything that touches it and you can't keep it in the cab due to Sublimation and CO2 accumulation.
Someday I will get a fridge for now cooler and ice.
