Maintenance Free Battery for JD 4400

[CVHoss]

After reading some of the posts about potential problems with acid leaking from the battery of the 4000 series tractors, I thought I'd just head off any trouble and put a maintenance free battery in my new 4400. Took measurements from the existing battery and went all over town today. Cannot locate one the correct size. While height may not be extremely critical, it would appear due to the limited space and the position of the hold-downs that width and depth are. If anyone has found a replacement maintenance free battery for a 4400 tractor that fits correctly in the mounting area, could you let me in on brand and, if possible, group size/model number.

Thanks
Hoss

The battery in my 4400 has a special cap with a small hose any seepage would drain out under tractor
Battery compartment stays clean and dry.
