Upgrade the starting power in your 1994-1998 Dodge 5.9L Diesel with a new battery. The average life expectancy of a battery is typically between three to six years, but there are several factors that can have an impact on that estimate. Your truck's battery can fail and need to be replaced for a variety of reasons. The indications of a weak battery will often include slow engine cranking and dim or flickering headlights. Dual batteries were available on many diesel trucks. If your truck has two batteries, both should be replaced at the same time. Shop the wide selection of batteries for your vehicle at XDP.
