I have an ARB fitted Exide Extreme in my 2003 3.0GU which runs a 60l engel. I noticed a bit of the (usual if you drive an old holden) white fuzz on the battery bracket after a
cape york trip last year and put it down to the corrugations and/or temperature so I cleaned with hot water and put a spray of INOX on it. Six months later it has returned and I can see water marks from acid or whatever on top of the battery. So I am wondering what is causing this spillage/seepage? and can I do anything to prevent it? Is the battery getting hot and if so why do ARB not include a heat shield with the DB setup?
