Optima Yellow Top Rubicon 2014

Post by scotchyl »

After some strenuous winching this weekend it appears that my stock battery is useless and i lost some lights on the drive at the weekend.

Therefore i am looking to get the Yellow Top Optima for the Jeep but struggling to find who stocks them and I need the adaptive base plate to fit the jeep.

Suggestions.

I think Ramy4x4 stock them, but US reviews mention they Northstar and Oddyssey batteries are much better but couldn't find any shops here that stock them (never really searched so much).

Desert Cart seems to have some Oddyssey batteries in stock (https://www.desertcart.ae/products/7212 ... -p-battery).
They have also some Northstar products, but not sure if these are car-batteries...

Desert cart seems to be a reseller of amazon.com items with a mark up and shipping cost - I used them once and had a good experience but if you can find a local supplier it might be cheaper.

I think there is one in Sharjah but to Abu Dhabi is logistically a fun. Ramy stocks the yellow top but the base plate is something I cannot locate.

If you install at Ramy, they will modify your stock mount to work with the yellow top. No adapter plate necessary.
