    Hawker battery questions.

    Hmm...for some reason my first post said it was waiting for mod review, and then I posted the above which will now be out of sequence and confusing :) I try again - I'm replying to this thread since it leaves off where my question begins. In resolving my charging system issues, I've replaced...

    Hawker battery questions.

    I forgot to add that if need more than two 6Ts for normal use, my plan is to get a Group 31 AGM or two, if needed. I'll bench the two "dead" 6Ts and see if I can bring them back to life without taking up space in the truck. Brad 5TonKayak

    Howdy fellow MV folks! My name is Brad Walker, I'm in Poulsbo, Washington and have a 1984 M923A2 personnel carrier. I am an avid kayaker as well. I'll sometimes throw a couple in the back, looking like an oversized Woody with surfboards, this the screen name. I've been lurking for a while...
