Need a 6V CJ2A battery

[doublereefed]

I need a new 6V battery for my '48 CJ2A. Best I can find is $300 range. There must be a less expensive source?

Thanks,

Tractor supply carries 6 volt batteries all the time for around $50, but they are good for about 20 minutes after the warranty runs out. Advanced Auto had one in stock, and I've had one for a couple of years without issues, for around $80. I've seen 6 volt batteries at a Walmart in the Midwest as well.

Advance carries an Optima for $200. I am not sure where your looking, but their all over for less than $300. Just "Google" 6 Volt Automotive battery.
