What is the camper? If you were to eplace that battery what size would you need to order. If it is equal or high amp rating it will work. but It might not fit the tray. If it fits the tray and is a little bigger your probably OK. If it is smaller might not be high enough amperage. you could measure the battery and ask autozone to ID it for you.

all of the like specs of the battery are rubbed off pretty much. except one that says 115... i have the serial number. but what is the worse that can happen if it doesnt work? could it blow up?.. it says its a class 34 maybe? but it only starts with 3 but looks like a four. only thing wrong with this i THINK.. is the specs are rubbed off.

As long as it fits in the tray and the cables hook up the same it will probly work. If its from a camper the amperage should be pretty high to run lights and other electrical devices in the camper. I would run it if it fits

12 volt battery right? and if the posts are in same spot and it fits the tray you should be fine. I swap batterys to different vehicles all the time.
