[DML] Re: What battery is recommended?

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It's a very standard Group 78 side-terminal battery. The common 
recommendation is Interstate MT78, but honestly if you go in to any 
battery store and say "98 Chevy Suburban K1500" you will get the right 
battery. 

The "upgrade" that many people like is the spun-type dry electrolyte 
battery such as the Optima. Can't help you with that one, but people 
who have them swear by them. They do cost more, the main benefit is 
that they won't leak all over your carpet when something goes wrong.
