Battery Size

Our 2000 Fifth Wheel had a bad battery and a broken battery box when we got it. As I started looking to replace the battery box I realized that I have some freedome here to upgrade the battery a bit, if there is room. We have the two inboard propane tanks, so there isn't much room. I was wondering what size battery is standard and what sizes others have used successfully. In other words, what are my options here?

 

Thanks!

Battery on 19

The battery the PO had aboard was a Group 24 and I currently replaced the battery with Group 27 on the 97 19. Looks like there would be a bit of room to go larger since you need a battery box replacement as well. I don't think the current box would take much larger.

Here's Interstates dimensions on batteries up to Group 29
