There are several levels of JD batteries. They are still made by Exide. They are made to JD specs. If you batteries are low in charge and they set in cold/freezing weather the battery will go bad. I do not care what brand it is.
You need to check amp hour reserve,cold ranking amps. This is what sets batteries apart. Having high cranking amps does not mean that it will work good for a heavy load like a diesel engine.
Also batteries plates are anchored differently for tractors than car/trucks. Tractor batteries are anchored at the base for protection from vibration. Car or truck batteries are anchored in the middle for motion protection, stops and starts.
Use the wrong type in the incorrect place and the plates will not last like they should.
Exide makes John Deere, Ford Motor Craft, and CIH batteries. Buddy hauls them from the Manchester plant every week.
