Battery relocation guide

[Tj 0785]

Anyone got a diy guide in the battery relocation.?I’ve had a search a few threads mention it but no guide, ( I bet there’s one in @<tuffty/> ‘s thread) also anyone recommend a slimline battery ? will be on a 3.2 engine if that makes a difference on what amp or cold crank amp size is needed

I covered it briefly in my build thread mate, Tuffty more so in his. It’s surprisingly easy though... I followed Tufftys, did a bit of research on what I needed to order parts wise and all done.

I had, well still have a slimline race battery. Not using it now though. It had a 630ah cranking power which is enough for the 1.8’s as for the 3.2’s not sure.

Just put a full size battery in the boot wheel well like me and Tuffty just be aware you’ll need to raise the boot floor height the miss the battery though. You could alternatively put a slimline racing battery laying down in the boot wheel well without to much trouble......

Best advice I can give on the Gel battery’s (race battery’s) is if your using the car once a week to a fortnight, hook it up to a decent trickle charger!

Yeah car may not get used a lot once it’s done I barely get chance to drive my daily now always in the ****** work van so may have to look at raising the boot floor

I did this with additional high density foam from an Audi 8P boot, your welcome to have it. I trimmed it all down to fit with the jack and tools. The only reason why I’m not going to be using it now is I need to raise mine even more to fit my water meth tank.
