Subject:Your method to fit grp 41 battery in box
From:Spencer Allen
Date:Thu, 26 Mar 2026 14:49:00 -0500

I think my 85 westy's battery box shrank (shrunk?) over winter. For years
I've always had a struggle when dropping the group 41 battery past the
pos-neg cables and have banged-up the pos cables some but always got the
battery in with a bit of maneuvering. today no matter what I did that
battery will not settle into the box. Any tips from those still using the
lead acid battery?
