Not me, just pulled out my old lawn mower battery and put in a new lawn
mower battery. 19.95, and 5 minutes work. Hope I get 4 years out of this
one too.

Battery is tall and wide, had to cut the plastic "holders" on the battery to make it fit, then hammer down the tabs on the battery tray. To add to the dilemma, the original metal holddown that fits around the entire battery had to be modified as it was too small to fit around this series 55. Did some engineering and added some brackets to make it larger. This battery is also very tall, so I had to remove and bend the tie down bolt to get some additional threading. Also had to buy, modify, and install rubber boots for the terminal posts. This was a definite necessity since the posts sit so high that when the side covers are on, they would actually touch - could be scary! All is done and I now have power again, will crank her up today. Did any others have this problem when installing a bigger battery??
