sorekiwi 761 #1 Posted October 11, 2013 The little 160 CCA battery I have in my diesel 516 isn't cutting it, I need to get something with some more grunt to it. So far the most powerful L&G sized battery I have found is the Huskee at 420 CCA. Does anyone know of anything bigger? (BTW, I want to leave the battery in its standard location, and I'm not interested in running two batteries.) Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lane Ranger 10,943 #2 Posted October 11, 2013 That's bigger than any I have seen Mike. I have tried just about all brands and getting one to last five years is a trick now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregg'shorses 77 #3 Posted October 11, 2013 The largest I found is this at 350CCA http://www.batteriesplus.com/product/37897-SLIU1XHD-Xtreme-Heavy-Duty-Battery/556-sli/6427-Lawn-and-Garden-Battery/146759-Wheel-Horse/Commando-8-Riding-Mower.aspx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,029 #4 Posted October 11, 2013 I bought a jet ski batt, cranks the twin diesel over pretty good, about 3/4" wider, about 2" narrower, and a 1" taller, cost about $75 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sorekiwi 761 #5 Posted October 11, 2013 (edited) Here is a link to the Huskee I mentioned above. Seems like its only 350 CCA, a little bit of misleading advertising on this one. That annoys me enough to deliberately avoid the product. Thanks Kelly, I'll look into it.

jimt1971 237 #10 Posted October 11, 2013 I have a group 78 pick up truck battery in my Raider just needed to turn it 90 degrees and it hangs over the battery tray a little. But it does power the plow lights, beacon light and winch for plowing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leeave96 487 #11 Posted October 11, 2013 I use 420 CCA from Tractor Supply or 425 CCA from either Autozone or Advance Auto. I have found over the years, for my tractors, anything less just doesn't cut it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
