It's been my experience in observing matters such as this that OEM batteries seem to last forever. One of my OEM tractor batteries is now 11 years old and doing fine. I have a disconnect switch on it and I use a charger/starter in cold weather, but when it eventually gives up the ghost I wouldn't expect more than 5-6 years out of a replacement battery. Why??? $$$$ ??? Can you purchase the same type of OEM battery your tractor came with?? Probable deterioration of the entire electrical system might be a contributing cause but in the case of my wife's 21 year old german car, after trying a replacement battery (Interstate) and getting about 2 years out of it, I went to the BMW dealer and asked if we could get the same type battery the car came with. "Sure" was the answer. That was 8 years ago and the battery is doing just fine.
