01 Weekender drop in aux battery?
« on: July 27, 2020, 10:38:16 am »
Hi,

Can anyone recommend a drop in aux batter to run my under seat factory cooler box/fridge?  Looking for as high capacity as I can get - willing to do a little mod, but just want it easy. 

Also - I need a couple of doors/panels for under the rear bench set.  Mine have broken tabs.  Any source or solutions please let me know.

Thanks!

I suggest you look into the lithium replacement that GoWesty sells.  May require some additional management but may just drop in.

I see that they are currently sold out.  The price was half of market for lithium. 

Personally, I installed a battleborn 100 ah battery under the seat - but on it's side.  Took plenty of modification and costs $1,000 but lots more power.  The 50 ah lithium that GoWesty sells would still be quite an upgrade to the factory one.  And so cheap.  If they restock, it's a steal!
