got a new battery for the xj. super charge from battery traders in moss street. 600cca (spose to be 670 so the book says, too long though). $160, maintenance free. much better than the 450cca the owner before me had put in. buggered anyway. also, new terminals. cut wires bit shorter, so have nice shiny wires now. has a built in volt meter.

The bigger cca is for the diesel ....

670cca supercharge fits ... but you have to cut out the ends of the tray and make a new hold down clamp because of the battery shape.

600cca is plenty tho.

was very close, and nearly bought it, just needed to cut one end of the battery hold down point. book also suggested the battery should have recessed terminals. but i read on one of the posts that the older xj's have a higher tray. mine fits without a problem. thanks for the response, good to hear 600 is enough. does anyone know what JEEP requires for a petrol update xj 2000 model?
