My son called and had a problem with his truck,dropped it off this morning and I put the meter on it,alternator good,battery bad..no big deal to change a battery...wrong! The bolt on the battery hold down clamp was rusted solid to the nut,struggled for almost and hour before I got the battery wiggled out,then had to take the plate off that the battery sits on,heat the bolt red hot,douse with cold water and remove. Then had to weld the nut back in place and reinstall the battery platform....about an hour of screwing around..had someone put some grease on that hold down bolt this would have been a five minute job..you might want to do that! In fairness the battery had been in there for ten years..no regrets about the battery..a Delco..I replaced it with a Canadian Tire product that was the equivalent in cold cranking..and I greased the bolt and nut real good..job done! Grease those hold downs!
