I have an 8N i'm in the process of restoring. I would like to know if they make a 12 volt battery that will fit in the original battery box. The person I purchased the tractor from cut the side out of the original box to accomodate a larger 12 volt automotive battery. I would like to replace the box with an original if there is a 12 volt battery that will accomodate it. Any suggestions?

I have an Auto Zone 26R-6 in my N. It fits nicely and the posts are in the right place for the cables to attach. (I assume you have converted everything over to twelve volt.) The battery costs less than $40.

I have a group 26 12 volt battery in my 8N. It is a little smaller than the original group 1 six volt. It has been given good service. As I think about it, I believe they make both a 26 and a 26 R. The only difference is the location of the posts. I am not sure which one I have. HTH
