Battery sites and Galvanised Jimnys was created by Smoggy
Just got myself a deal on 2x optima yellow tops. I have worked out that I can squeeze one in on the right side of the engine bay by moving the screenwash bottle etc. But the original battery site is too tight for the other battery and I am struggling to see how I can get it in. I didnt really want to move the airfilter box forward but this may have to happen. :( Also has anyone any idea what year suzuki started galvanising jimnys, I know mine is not as its a 2000 x plater.

Yeah reaper was thinking of that as the only answer and through crimping the extension cables. Thanks.
