I have a JD 420 that I want to use the front loader for snow removal. Being in Northern MI, temps can get to -20F. The tractor came with a puny size 1 8 volt battery rated at 430 cold cranking amps at 32F. By removing the tool box & rotten battery tray, I could install a large 6 volt battery with 1080 cold cranking amps at 32 or 880 CCA at 0 degree F. Would I be better with the large 6-volt battery? I could not find a larger 8 volt battery & 430 CCA at 32F is not much current.
