[QUOTE="DaytonLax14, post: 8461626, member: 608459"] My response wasn't meant to be rude, I just found it hard to believe that there isn't ANY agm battery that will fit in your battery tray. I'm pretty sure a group 48 is the closest size to a 41 The issue with mixing AGM and wet cell batteries is the float voltage. AGMs float quite a lot higher than wet cells normally so there will be a charge imbalance between the batteries. Since everything will tend towards equilibrium the batteries will constantly try to balance themselves out which eventually results in everything being flat. But, many people mix lead acid and AGM with no problems while some people have problems. I'd stay on the safe side and not mix the two together but that's just me. [/QUOTE]
