battery dimensions?

[h1crwchf]

Hello, love the forum! I have been reading many of the posts here and I am convinced I need a deuce (or several). Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the batteries? I need to purchase a couple and I would like to be sure they fit. The truck has a fiberglass (or plastic) battery tray. Thanks!

a 6TL is

Length: 10” 256 mm
Width: 10.5” 269 mm
Height: 8.9” 227 mm
Minimum Weight: 88 lb. 40 kg

For the price of 1 6TL, you can get 2 heavy duty batteries from any of the good auto parts stores. Unless you live in extremely cold country, you should be OK. I have a plastic tote box for a battery box in my deuce, since the original was missing when I bought it.

Thanks! I don't even know where you would get a 6TL so I was planning on buying deep cycle marine batteries or just some plain old truck batteries with at least 1000 CCA.

(anyone have a radiator for a deuce?)

(see if my signature works on this one...)
