Hi I have a 84 westfalia joker 1.9 df petrol. I need new maim battery and leasure battery but don't know which to get. Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

There's plenty of choice out there. You are limited by the size of the battery spaces under the front seats particularly regarding battery height. So measure up before you buy.

Use the search function - plenty of posts on the subject. No point anyone running over it all again!

Plus a ton of stuff in the wiki and in the archive

Although its possible to relocate the leisure batt if you can find a spot for it. Ronsrecord has a joker and his leisure is below his kitchen cupboards.

my leisure battery is behind / under the drivers seat where i moved the engine battery from....... no swivel seat base on drivers side so height not an issue , made a custom cover, job done!!

My second leisure (110ah) is in the small cupboard left of the fridge (late Westy). I've just looped round the positive with some heavy cable to the leisure in the battery box (Fused of course) then a seperate earth to chassis.
Code 100 (72ah) in the battery box plus the 110ah in the cupboard.
