yes agm weighs more, but you need to think about the technology, sealed and you can mount anyway you like, i used to run the sears die hard platnums, no mods needed, they were a little bit shorter at the post, thats why the oddy fits better, you can go to batteryplus and get there x2, now northstar and oddy is one company, order online and use coupon code and do store pickup. i also think that the post area is a little different with my northstar. i was the lucky one to buy these battery in a group buy.

yes the 31m im using is high, maybe its due to how the terminals are, stud and post mount they use.

group 31 weight 75 pounds
group 27 weight 68 pounds
group 24 weight is 57 pounds,

i wouldnt care too much about weight, when you should be thinking of having a higher capacity.
i used to run oddy pc1700mjt, these were the size in the european cars, it was a little on the short as in height, but wide like group 31. i think i used a block of wood at the top to use stock battery hold down.

the odyssey (34 i think, some agms used those #s for their 24f size) might be a good fit but i heard of some pitfalls with those, or at least nothing to confiding in terms of fitment. i think those odyssey or red top even need the oem clamp to be proected with rubber because they need to sit offcenter with a terminal then .5" away from metal battery tiedown...no thanks

optima red tops need a shim and stretch cable (the ground and positive i think are super tight, with red top positioned off center of tray to begin with)

the X2 i posted about might be a good fit but i cant really confirm it as of now. edit, thanks @metramm

thats a very slick battery ^
its a northstar relabelled and fits perfectly...hmm might be my battery. battery plus has them for $230 near me

Is there a reason OP is going with a 24F? I thought that a 27F was the standard battery for our vehicles. I have a X2 27F and it fits perfectly with no modification.

i like the X2 24f version, not positive if thats a good fit with stock tray and cables?

im replacing an old 24f ac delco ive had it for 3ish years and it didnt start one time i left music on or something a bit too long. good battery. almost considered going with typical fresh walmart BJs interstate etc battery but i wheel and live in cold area, adding winch and small lightbar soon, and wouldnt mind the cleaner battery.

if you could chime in on if you need to trickle charge (special with agm?)
id almost consider going regular new 24f battery if my 2004 alternator i run thru water wont handle the charge of the agm and i have to charge it every few mos or so. i tend to have a lot of short commutes and wheel every week or two. read from honest source a regular battery and lightbar + winch used reasonably will be fine too.

dont want to run big heavy 27f or modify anything once again

thanks
Thanks for writing such an interesting article. I'm glad your guidance helped me. All cars rely on some sort of battery for cranking the engine and powering all the electronics. But making sure that you are getting the right sized battery for your car is quite important. And since most cars rely on 24F batteries because of their standardised size 24F battery to be compatible with your car not only in terms of its size but as well as the voltage. This is important to check so that all of the electronics of your car can be directly powered by your car’s battery. As a result, all 24F batteries given here are 12 volt ones for high compatibility.

My question is why do a 27 or 31 when a 24F is the correct size and has more capacity depending on model.

I'm not a battery expert, but I believe 27F has more reserve and CCA than a 24F. At least this is true for the X2 power batteries which is what I have.
