I have a Tera flex front adjustable track bar on my jeep. The 15s I bought are the mb razors which are a discount tire direct I believe. There is a whole thread on jk forum for ones that fit the JK. They bolted directly up no issues but it is tight.

As stated on a Yellow Top question thread....
So my battery died hard today which caused me to have to start looking at batteries. While researching batteries and looking for the best for my current and future needs I ran into two issues. In 2012 jeep changed to a group 91 from a 34. This limited options a bit. Finding one in stock limited me even more. I read everywhere that a Odyssey or yellow top was the way to go. I also read that yellow tops would not fit into a 2012 or later JK without getting longer battery cables or doing a dual battery setup. I finally came across a blog where a guy showed that a 34 group yellow top battery will fit. All that needs to be done is the ground wire plastic pop clip holding the wire out of the way needs to be removed as well as two pop clips holding positive of wire against the firewall need to be removed. That gives you enough extra wire to reach over to the yellow top posts. This option also will allow me to grow to a duel battery setup easily by only purchasing one more yellow top battery along with the dual battery kit.12002781_10153682157449297_7556730393920944307_n.jpg12006176_10153682157429297_8811334300257444033_n.jpg

I had the stocker battery in my Jeep. In fact it was just replaced under warranty about 6 months ago. Anyways fast forward and I got an ARB 50qt for a great price. I wanted to switch to a deep cycle battery and just like you was having issues. I was going to go with a Sears Diehard Group 35 battery as it would fit in the 12+ Jeep per Project JK. However Sears decided to stop making them I guess and I could not find one anywhere. About the same time my 47 bantam trailer I had sold so about 4 weeks ago I bit the bullet and bought the Genesis dual battery tray with 2 yellow tops. I got the yellow tops and a crazy price with a buddies hookup so I was extremely happy. My fridge runs great now and I had it put in just in time for Expo East. Anyways my point is you went the right route and when you get the dual battery tray you are going to love it. Especially if it is Genesis. Expensive yes but absolutely top notch. Here is a pic of mine.

Finally got around to posting... Added some lumens to the jeep... A 42" led light bar, 2 led cubes, and 2 6" leds on the rear.
