Looking at this battery for my 4Runner ('95); Odyssey PC1700LMJT & the best price I can find on it anywhere is $301.56 shipped - can anyone tell me if there is a reliable source on these for less?....reliable as in you've dealt with the seller or know someone who has.

Be sure to catch the fact that this is the "L" model; which means the positive terminal is on the left side like my current wiring (I suppose it's stock *shrugs). If anyone feels like chiming in about the stock battery group size (I don't know what it is) or cable placement feel free.

Any info is welcome

 

I bought PC1700MJT for my Land Cruiser from these guys last year: West Coast Batteries. I paid quite a bit less than that last year for the same battery.

 

Keep in mind the "MJT" is cheaper than the "L-MJT" anywhere you look.

 

Did you call them and ask for a price on the model you want?

 

Yes, they don't have the "L" model & say it won't fit. They say the only one that will work is the Odyssey 25-PC1400 - for $260 + around $40 shipping = no thanks lol

I need to drive to NW Arkansas & talk to the (only) Odyssey dealer here I suppose because there are a lot of people running the 1500's & even the 2150's


Edit: for exact model #

 

Well, the other retailers say NO the 25-PC1400 is too small (beats me) but I found a PC 1500T in state for $169.95 + tax so I guess that's the one I'm going with since it's the closest dimensions to what's in my rig already. Once I get it & install it I'll post up some pics & let others know if it needed any modification to fit.

Not bad since the Exide Orbital is the same price; the only bad thing is the Orbital is available locally & the Odyssey is a loooong way away....3 & 1/2 hours to be exact. Good thing my sister lives close to the dealer so I can have a dual purpose trip.
