Generic batteries for M1009

[1 Patriot-of-many]

After heading to Oreilly's auto parts and having a side post battery put on the counter then two top posts the same size when I said it's not a side post, getting them home to find they're not even close, WHAT GENERIC batteries are the same size to fit in the trays? I don't want to spend $200 on a battery. Close to a $100 is okay.

I used the advanced auto battery from autocraft group 31s farm tractor. It has studs so I added the thread on termials . Battery with coupon code p20 was 83.00 and termials were 5.00.

Battery has 1185 cranking amps/ 950 cold cranking amps

Thanks. Mine has stud type cables so that works even better. That's pretty rasonable price for that much CCA! Well i returned the two batteries that weren't even close. They matched up a set part# 31-5 on the top of the batteries, a little over $100 a battery 950CCA top posts.

I have had good luck with Interstate group 31 blems/factory seconds. Only $45 each and have never let me down yet.

I go with the Interstate blems also, I've bought dozens of them for deuces and had good luck with them.
