130 viewsTraxide SC80 brain modified. Cut the studs down to the nuts and removed the rubber cover. Had to do this as otherwise it wouldn't fit comfortably and would squash the brake vacuum pipe

119 viewsTraxide brain mounted. It's mounted slightly tilted towards the front of the engine bay so as to give as much space as possible to the brake vacuum pipe behind it.

Deka 9A49 AGM Intimidator320 viewsThe Deka 9A49 AGM Intimidator makes an excellent primary battery alternative to the factory or Interstate. Made in US of premium quality. This is an excellent match with the Traxide system w/another Deka or Yellow Top optima.

This will behave properly in your D3/4 LR3 with slightly less wear and tear on your alternator.

Traxide USI-160 Install497 viewsOverview picture of Traxide USI-160 upgrade install. This was an upgrade from the SC80 which performed flawlessly. The USI-160 had two relays and can deliver more amperage. As a result, the wiring was upgraded to 4/0 Welding Cable (warn) and heat shielding was added. The unit performs flawlessly to support 2 HAM Radios, Fridge, etc. Like me https://www.facebook.com/DifferentialPartsUS

Aux Battery vent 8.jpg
BCI Group 40R Deka 640RMF battery showing vent hose run forward to windshield washer reservoir area 1426 viewsRecessed post "Euro profile" battery to "match" OEM and stock Land Rover bracket; note that the Traxide SC80-LR module is mounted at an angle to allow for the main cable to sit under the cover so cover still closes.
The battery is a nominal 7", (180mm), high, but sits on a 1" battery spacer set under to raise the bottom front end of the battery such that the approx 11", (290 mm), length of the BCI 40R battery rises above the angled plastic nibs at the forward end bottom of the case front; hence sufficient space, (1/4", 5mm) remains at the brake reservoir end.

Also the 40R battery does not have hold down "flanges" on each end; on the sides yes, but not the ends so no additional length is required.

When I had to replace the 40R, this time I installed the shorter, (9.625"), taller, (7.5") Interstate BCI 47 / DIN H5 battery which eliminated the spacer on the bottom and better fit the stock LR tie down bolt lengths. Deka also has a BCI 47 / DIN H5 that would work fine as well.

LR3 plastic cover and box back on in front of rad 0500.JPG
Plastic cover and Box back on in Front of Radiator 637 viewsThe wiring loom is below the cover - nothing is crushed or distorted and all fits back together OK. The black plastic box with the DPDT, (centre OFF), toggle switch is to tie the battery maintainer to each of the two batteries per the Traxide Dual battery install. I can also get power to the power door locks if all fails.

Main Battery showing aux cable feed running off positive battery post.773 viewsThe black wiring loom around the battery cable to the aux battery was a part provided with the Traxide kit. My goal was to run the cable low enough such that the battery box cover would go back on as previous.

Note the hole drilled in the side of the battery box such that the new cable could thread thru to allow the battery box top to still fit the same as prior to the addition of the cable to the auxiliary battery.

traxide797 viewsThis would be an ideal location for the traxide 80 kit, there are pre threaded holes available here.. would take a bit of fitting, and extending the cable to the primary battery would need to be extended.
