What Battery
« on: November 30, 2011, 08:39:09 PM »
Evening all,

Think the battery is on its way out on the Jeep.

Alternator is less than 12months old and working fine confident its the battery struggling to crank over after a few short runs.

WJ 4.7 V8,

What "AH" and "CCA" do I need.

Cheers.

go to your local motor factors, not halfrauds

they will know what you need and you will save £'s, remember its just a battery to start a motor, nothing special just cos it has a Jeep badge  :icon_winkle:

Didn't need to utilise that much room mate, only needed the one battery.

Mine gave up last week, local motor factors listed this for my 4.7 WJ:

Bosch S4 Pt No: 0 092 S40 080  74AH  680A

Not the cheapest but winters are pretty bad here.

Yes I saw the bosch S4.

One of the contractors did me a favour and appeared with mine!

Just put it on and 100times better on start up, plus everything seems brighter.

No Rob, despite your simplicity.

I did already have the dimmer switch in its brightest setting.
