Nothing like a little 'Shop Time' !! 8) Good choice on the battery.
Garage time!
I'm headed out to the garage for some pre-Spring cleaning and to install an Odyssey 925L in my work Ranger.

We have had some great weather here in Ohio and I was hitting the garage about daylight for the past three days. I already put my new Diehard in, put the front driveshaft in and cleaned out the bed of the Ranger.
I got two of the cars fixed and seviced and thought I would work on the CJ today, but it is cold so I got a hair cut waiting for it to warm up some. I should just load the Ranger up and try out the new driveshaft.

I need to get back to work on my Ranger, it needs a new CV, a new bed, and some "other" performance enhancing mods 8)
Didn't go so well with the battery. I took the old battery from my series 11 Ranger 500 and can't get the new battery to fit. I have the old style RangerWare, with a battery box. The battery I took out was a car battery with the side mounts. I even tried laying the battery on it side, but not enough room to attach the cables.

I had the tabs on the front and back of the bottom of the Diehard I put in. I took my grinder and cleaned them off without bothering the case to get mine to fit.Gary Lenon said:Didn't go so well with the battery.

Does that mean there is a Odyssey 925 for sale ??? That is a bummer that it did not work out for you.Gary Lenon said:Didn't go so well with the battery.

No, I don't give up that easily! :lol: I have ordered some terminal end adapters for the Odyssey that should allow me to make a hook up on the battery.slane01 said:Does that mean there is a Odyssey 925 for sale ???

I guess its just like building a puzzle Gary....Just need to make a few trips to the parts store to get some Do-Dads, & Whatcha-Ma-Jiggers and piece it together....RZRRich said:Sounds like you have it figured out - keep us posted Gary. :wink:Gary Lenon said:No, I don't give up that easily! :lol: I have ordered some terminal end adapters for the Odyssey that should allow me to make a hook up on the battery.slane01 said:Does that mean there is a Odyssey 925 for sale ???

But Hey, in case that all doesn't work out, I will offer you $50.00 for the battery.....I figure it is a good offer for a Scrap Battery :mrgreen:
I'll blow it up before I sell a 160 dollar brand new battery for fifty bucks. THEN I might sell it for fifty bucks.slane01 said:I guess its just like building a puzzle Gary....Just need to make a few trips to the parts store to get some Do-Dads, & Whatcha-Ma-Jiggers and piece it together....RZRRich said:Sounds like you have it figured out - keep us posted Gary. :wink:Gary Lenon said:No, I don't give up that easily! :lol: I have ordered some terminal end adapters for the Odyssey that should allow me to make a hook up on the battery.slane01 said:Does that mean there is a Odyssey 925 for sale ???
