It's a group 8 battery like big trucks use , be sure to get the post type group 8 , they offer post and stud type terminals . Warren Duchesne

Re: 12 volt battery for WC 57
Due to the lack of stowage in the WC56/57 vehicles what a couple of us have done here is to install a conventional 12V battery in one corner of the compartment and make up a tool box to occupy the remaining space. This works quite well if originality is not a requirement but nobody knows unless you open the compartment.brian in denver wrote: ↑Mon Aug 21, 2017 7:12 amthats a lot of battery if your not running a radio dynamotor. most people get by with regular.
