I was gonna ask why you are shopping for a tractor battery at a horsie and puppy feed store, but then I looked, and, HECK, they still have 'em!

Other sources if any in your area might be Interstate Battery or Batteries Plus or Rural King etc. They (for starting purposes) just aren't
as common nowadays and for starting purposes, especially in cold climates, the more Cold Cranking Amps CCA and Reserve Capacity and using big
cables can help.

I've gone to the optima type 6V batteries on my tractors and am very satified. No leakage and they have to last longer than those
liquid acid batteries. Have used the 12V also and gotten excellent service from them. But.....more costly.
 
If you have Bomgaars in your area they still supply 6 volt batteries. I bought 4 earlier
this summer to replace old ones in a friends John Deere 730 diesel 24V electric start.
They were even on sale at 59.99
 
Is there not room for 2 12volts in there instead of fooling around with 4 6 volts. For the 100.00 they want for the one 6 you can have 2 12's for about 150 and lots less cables to fool with. Then if you use the stud top 31's it will just about eliminate cable cleaning till you change them.

For some of us, it don't get no better.... Like here, in the Phoenix area...we basically have WalMarts everywhere, a few Tractor Supply stores around, and a handful of C-A-L Ranch stores....which is basically a building full of the same Asian garbage and trash as TSC, with a different name outside. Want a hardware store? We get ACE and TrueValue...which again, is full of the same Asian garbage and trash as I can get at WalMart, at triple the price.

I had better options than all of the above living in Detroit than I do here, and "tractors" (meaning general agricultural/utility type equipment beyond common home owner grade riding mowers) are FAR more common here than Detroit.

On the other hand, I was able to pick up a full compliment of tune up parts, some fix-it parts, and a stack of hydro hoses for the 8N at TSC last week, though I did have to go to 3 different stores to get enough hoses to replace them all on the loader. The kind of thing that I couldn't find _any_ other place here other than the hoses. Even then, they were 3 times as much for the same low grade Asian import hoses....
