Depends on your winch but the bigger the better

I'd go for something with at least 650 CCA (cold cranking Amps)

Numax CXV-X 1000 Amp

Specifications
12V 86Ah
Cold Start Marine Cranking Amps: 1000A
Deep-cycle & Starting
Sealed Lead Acid

This will work well with that winch and costs about £88 delivered. Good luck!
That's what I'm getting for mine next, had the same Numax in my SJ since ive had it and it's taken a lot of abuse and survived to this day, however it is starting to get a bit tired now :lol: not really surprised though as I've lost count of the amount of times its been flattened over the years!
