Any reputable battery supplier will have decent replacements. I fitted a Supercharge, but Century, Marshall's, NRMA or others will have either a direct replacement or an upgraded one. When I put the 2nd battery in mine I looked at the space where the original was and you could probably fit a larger battery there too.

Yesterday had to jump start myself.

What gave you guys replaced your cranking battery with?

I still got the original one be 5 years in a couple weeks since I picked up the old girl, so am happy with that.

So do I get a genuine Toyota or something else.

I do also have a optima marine blue as a dual battery and that's been great.

Opinions be great

Pretty sure autobarn has a sale on at the moment for batteries
I got a supercrank one from there few weeks ago
