AGM for Hybrid

[Glen Baker LLC]

This looks too big. All the other batteries mentioned here are H5s.

H5 batteries are larger and require removing plastics and bending metal.
The battery in the picture below is a perfect fit.

Thank you! That makes things a bit easier. I have to wonder why some members posted having to use Forscan.

With an Ecoboost changing the Target SOC% in Forscan may have an effect as it has an alternator.
For Hybrids adjusting it didn't seem to make a difference.

What model number is it? If you say the H5 is too big, what is this? Thanks!

You're going to have to ask "Chewy"
About any specs.

Here's what you have to do to get a H5 to fit.

I took a chance on the EverStart H5. It's a big boy but it fits. Don't even try without removing the plastic storage. I hammered the tabs down so I could undo it later if needed. I hope this is the fix.

Amazon said the H6 was the right one for my Maverick, so I just went out and measured the one in my truck, and the H4 is the right size. Ford replaced my battery this past February, but still have deep sleep issues. Thanks for bringing the size difference to my attention and Amazon not having the proper info.

Did you purchase and install this battery? Wondering how it fit and what adaptations you had to make.

If you stick with an H4, 140R, or LN1, they are drop in AGM replacements that don’t require any trim removal. I installed the Delco LN1 AGM in less than 30 minutes and I took my time. Removing trim makes installation easier but, I didn’t want to risk breaking any snap points. At least one MTC member broke their trim by removing it for a battery install. At least one MTC member installled an H5 without removing trim but, most members have removed the trim and modified the battery plate to install an H5 given its over size compared to OEM spec. For the hybrid, CCA is less relevant since it does not start the ICE.

I haven’t changed my battery. Mine has only had one deep sleep issue so I’m still running the stock battery.

So what is the group size of the battery and where did you purchase it?

You're asking the wrong member.

Oops, sorry.

I think I found it. Can someone confirm if the terminals are oriented the correct way.

Yes. It fits and connects just like the OEM battery.

Did this one have the vents?

I have it in my Amazon cart for when my OEM fails. Thank you
