Name, Shipping Address for UPS, phone # & email address
Please keep an eye out for the invoice after you order because it ends up in spam some times.

PRODUCT INFORMATION:
Battery Cage is designed for a Group 31M battery. The suggested battery is the Die Hard Platinum 31M, which is a re-branded Odyssey 31M-PC2150. Cage will work with either battery.

Battery Cage is made from Stainless Steel, so it will not corrode or rust. Painting or coating is not required. All hardware is included. Installation is just as simple as changing a battery. The factory j-hook locations are still used, however, we provide heavier duty replacement j-hooks with the cage. No drilling or modifications are required.

** The battery cage is delivered unpainted. **

Full Disclosure: I have nothing to gain from assisting Pelfreybilt with this group buy, aside from a t-shirt they are sending me as a thank you. This is one of the first 5th gen 4Runner products, so I just wanted to help them out as a new possible vendor and get the 5th gen group here another product to choose from.

I will buy one for a later project.
 
I apologize if I missed this in the other thread... what is the GB price for the cage?

And, does anyone know of any good deals/coupon codes for the battery?

Thanks.

Images (from image sites) are blocked at work... So I am assuming it's a picture of the price. haha. Thanks for clarifying. :caked:

I'm still on the fence. Need to find a great deal on the battery to go along with this.

There usually is some sort of deal online. I got both my Diehard batteries at Sears and got a good deal on both of them (I have a 35D waiting for my dual battery set up). I contacted my local sears with the online sale price and they matched it.

Edit: Per Google Shopping:
$279.99 Diehard platinum marine battery group size 31m (price with exchange) --> Sears
$114.99 Diehard marine / rv battery group size 31m (price with exchange) --> Sears

Other brand Group 31M batteries were equal price or more expensive than the listed Platinum battery.

Am I missing something, or does this just replace the stock battery clamp?

The cage replaces the OEM battery tray and battery tie-down. A Group 31M doesn't fit the OEM tray so you have to remove that part to fit the (significantly) larger battery. The long j-hooks of the OEM tie-down allow the battery to twist due to their length (and the now missing tray). With the heavier weight of the 31M, this becomes a concern under offroad conditions. When fitting a 31M, the leads from the alternator are also a tight fit, which also becomes an issue if the battery were to twist under the OEM tie-down.

This cage holds the larger battery and has the tie-down points low on the cage. This prevents the whole setup from twisting. The beefier hardware also reduces the risk of the j-hook breaking (which granted is a limited risk if the battery twists under the OEM tie-down, but I'll take it as a bonus risk reduction).

If your name is on the list in post 1 and you have emailed Satin, please post a quick message so I can keep the list properly updated... thanks everyone!:typing:

excuse the newbie question, but i've looked around a little. What is the significant improvement on a group 31 battery over stock?
 
Count me in!

I've sent an email and am excited. Thanks for arranging the group buy, and for doing the work on the design!
