    Been a while, I'm looking at a traction battery repair/replacement, just poking around see what's available, maybe more active members have some suggestions....
    I know there's rebuild/reman options, ranging in price and who knows about longevity.... But I'll consider anything.
    I saw the new OEM option, most Internet searches found them out west, no shipping, guess I'd call some local dealers
    Don't know what I can get for individual cells, as in new, are they available, OEM cells.
    Any suggestions, I can work with whatever options just shopping for components, be it new used or reman, preferably new, be it a pack, replacement cells, OEM or aftermarket, just don't know what's what, what's good?

    I'm interested in giving you a summary of options, but in order to help you better please let me know what region in the US you live in or if that doesn't apply what part of the world you live in?

    Good point as I came across dealer listings out west, my local dealers don't show nothing, guess I could ask them, but for the record, Detroit, MI.
    I came across a couple local rebuilders/refurbishers, I have 3 used packs that give me all sorts of gremlins, I wouldn't mind a refurbished pack but I am also considering new, be it OEM after market, kit or whole.
    There's adds every where hard to tell what what, honestly I'd rather get new OEM they just don't seem to be all that easily available and price is allover the place
