Hi All, having just recieved my 110AH battery, trying to fit it in to the stowage on the left hand side of the engine bay the space where the spare wheel goes is stopping me getting it in. As i stow my spare on the front am i going to have to cut into the metal or bash space to get my battery in? Is it possible to remove (unbolt) this unused area and free it up for my tech? Many thanks Dean
Are you sure it don't fit ? mine is tight, very tight in fact, but it does go in with some fiddling, what are the dimensions of yours ? I can go measure mine and we can compare..........i.e, if mine is the same and fits, then so should yours...........at least do this before you start cutting or bashing
and it would be a cutting job... I've thought about doing it a few times, clears room for firetec, 2nd 85ah battery etc. Not much space lost in the wardrobe.
Mine's a 90Ah battery, but a low height one and it fits in just peachy! 310mm L x 175mm W x 190mm H Although I did measure the space it was going in before I bought it
give or take 5mm as its hard to measure accuratly when on charge, its 365 L x 195 W x 190 H, Its a 110A
I can try and exchange it, it came from JK, i'll have to pay for double postage!! Maybe i'll measure the space i've got before i get another one! I'm going to have a look at fitting the battery in the space where the spare wheel should go first! I think this must be a wasted space i could use! Thoughts?
