    Largest Battery possible in a vert?

    Largest Battery possible in a vert?

    Whats the largest class battery that one can install in a vert without modification of the stock battery tray and mounting hardware?

    I'm going to say group 48/H6 as it fits perfectly on front mounted cars.

        I've always used Group 91 / T6 in my vert and touring.

          I once ran a T6 grp 91 based on Autozone's recommendation but it didn't last very long. Anyway, after some research, I found that T6 is about 3/4" shorter height than grp 48/H6.

            Correct - T6 is smaller, which I prefer. Mine last about 5 years. Just had to replaced one with a 2017 production date. I don't treat them great or buy high end batteries. Both cars sit for long periods without use and are only intermittently on a battery tender.
