Hi all, been awhile.

OK, battery seems to be dead. Terminals were all covered in that wonderful white stuff. Took off the terminals, cleaned, etc. and now charging.

OEM battery, looking for something better, etc. but the yellow top, etc. that what once suggested no longer is available for a 2010 H3 Alpha.

Additionally, recall reading to change the terminals. See on here to purchase Stingers.

Now, is there a particular type that needs to purchased (other than to ensure a positive and negative)?

Also, how hard is it to install?

My shop just quoted me for the battery (interstate) $220 (Insterstate).

But we have been having issues with truck. with ABS failure, etc. and wondering if the terminals also need to be replaced, again, how hard is it?

Also, what type of battery is needed for an H3.

 

I recently replaced my 7yr old Deka battery and got a new 1 with a 10% discount code+free home delivery from NAPA =saved me a gallon of gas.

How to you use jumper cables with the stingers?

 

Still has 12.5v+on top of my stingers. New coupon from napa above now 15%.Get yourself an east penn battery!

 

East Penn is the Napa branded battery? Which is this one? NAPA Battery BCI No. 86 690 A Wet?

Also, and yes I am a dolt, switching out terminals do I have to cut the current one off then crimp, etc.?

Hack the wires close to the terminals, then strip the insulation far enough to get clean wire inside the stingers, tighten the bolt clamp then seal.
