so when all else fails, read the Owner's Manual. Here's how it all shakes out...

The XL & XLT come with a 610 CCA battery. Lariat, King Ranch & Platinum come with a 730 CCA battery. Battery tray part # is the same for both batteries. Cover (heat shield) of course is different as the 730 CCA battery is physically longer than the 610 CCA battery.


So after doing further research I discovered our trucks can also come with a 760 or 800 CCA battery as well. Both of these batteries are Absorbed Glass Mat design. Can anyone tell me which options these AGM batteries may be included in? I'm thinking the Snow Plow Package.


Part numbers for batteries are as follows:
BXT-48H6-610
BXT-94RH7-730
BAGM-48H6-760
BAGM-94RH7-800


Part numbers for covers (heat shield) are as follows:
FL3Z-10A687-B (610 CCA only)
FL3Z-10A687-A (730, 760 & 800 CCA only)
I have the 760 AGM in my 2.7L XLT I have max tow max payload but from what I have read all 2.7L have the 760 AGM in them.

looks like you can still buy them to me... $249.99

I'm doing the same, dropping a 48 720 Odyssey battery, reached out to them and confirmed this SKU fits with no mods

I personally would not use the oem batterys judging by my past issues with ford batterys, and the dozens of threads all over this forum with battery issues on OEM batterys, you can get a better battery for pretty much the same $$ going non OEM.
So I decided on the BXT-94RH7-730. I also ordered the FL3Z-10A687-A cover (heat shield)

I know this an old thread but my 2017 Screw XLT came with the 610 Battery and it has the Snow Plow Package. I ordered the BAGM-94 R H7800 battery.

That's because you have the 2.7L w/Auto Stop/Start
