Alright! So The battery works. Everything is mounted and attached. I'm not cranking the car until Friday since it's in a storage unit 1 hour away and I'm going back to finish installing brake pads and SS lines that I am working on as well. I'll let you guys know if it cranks on Friday!

Btw I forgot to mention. You can Get through to the wire boot thing on the passenger side without removing the ac blower which is a huge pia to put back. Also, didn't know this was a feature. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...cd968097c8.jpg

i guess da question is why. why u screwing with the corner weights of da car..

josemartinrea 08-03-2017 09:35 PM

So it's been about five months since I put this battery in. I've let the car sit for four days at a time since I have a work vehicle hat I use daily. Cranks just fine every time. Encountered a water leak when I removed the boot because I broke the tabs that hold the boot in place. I used windshield urethane (I work in the autoglass industry) to stop the leak. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...348a82d663.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2cbe701a22.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f1dd6e9356.jpg

:facepalm: Sorry to revive this old monster however I'm interested in knowing what did all of you do with the battery current sensor?

THE BULL 07-28-2021 10:11 AM

It looks like the Battery Current Sensor just monitors discharge for smart charging purposes and Battery temp.
