DieHard T4 vs DieHard H4 Battery

[Milous]

Has anyone installed a DieHard H4 Battery (as opposed to the T4)?

T4:
470 CCA, 585 CA, 70 Minute Reserve Capacity
Dimensions: 6-15/16" D x 6-15/16" H x 8-1/8" L

H4:
480 CCA, 600 CA, 96 Minute Reserve Capacity
Dimensions: 6-15/16" D x 7-1/2" H x 8-1/8 "L

The H4 is 9/16" taller, which by my measurements will fit height-wise (barely) in the Maverick.

And the H4 specs are slightly better...

As to your question, here is someone using that exact battery. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/hybrid-12v-battery-replacement.28921/

Another thing to mention. The 99R battery is also considered to be the T4.

Personally, I'd go bigger if im paying for a battery. I did some size comparisons already and I'd look at the 96R or the H5. The 96R will likely fit through the opening of the truck but the H5 requires the plastic area around the battery to be removed first before it can be installed. Those batteries have a much higher CCA and RC numbers compared to the stock ones ford includes.

I didn't find a post mentioning the H4, only the T4...

My bad on that. Read it backwards. The h4 battery is one of the batteries the maverick can come with from the factory. Fits without issue. I have a ford branded h4 in mine. I've also been tempted to replace it with a bigger battery too.

Interesting, I was not aware of that...
