The Kleber or the boggers look like the way to go, cheers for the input!

New battery in and it started first time!

Purred like a swiss clock, lucky day for me!

Cheers all,

Thanks for the tips, I will let you know how I get on!

The Simex's look good, but might did holes (I'm already an expert at that!)


"IMHO you probably want a flotation style tyre as not to dig up the place."

Good call, we have very boggy forest roads (no gravel ever laid) and water logged paddocks.

Anyone in Westport with a spare set?!!

The terminals seem to be OK and clean, the battery from my hiace turned it over but only very slowly (yes I have checked that it has oil!) so I assume that it isn't strong enough? I know the battery in it is shot because when I picked it up the truck was already running and the owner said it would ...

OK I have a 15' (10' wide) wheeled hilux ute and need some tyres.

The ute will be used on a farm only, mainly waterlogged paddocks and deep muddy tracks - no or very little gravel.

Recommendations please!!!

Which is the best battery for an '88 Single Cab Hilux?

LN 60 2.2 diesel engine (I think)

Just picked it up and the engine barely turns with my Hiace battery, what type do I need and which rating would give the strongest start/turn over?

Recommendations please!
