Now thats a screaming deal. Best buy them up before you need it and can't get it or the buy it when you need it price is 4 times this one... Thanks. Mine are in great shape and much larger than these oem style. These are still a great cable for the price.

Those cables are spec'd from an econoline van. Don't remember how well they fit a truck.

Got my cable today and layed it out across the truck. It looks like a good fit. I didn't install it, so I don't know for sure. I'll do it when I upgrade to the large batteries, but I'm sure enough to order a spare cable. I figure I can't go wrong for 50$

these do not fit as well as the truck cables.
the double cable from starter to battery #1 has to be clocked just right for it to reach.
trucks have the post ring on the opposite side.
when using the direct replacement batteries, they hit the cell fill caps.

From bat#1 to #2, its not long enough to go in the stock location.
i made them work, but does not fit as well as the truck cables.

yes, i did try flipping this lug around, but battery posts are tapered, so it did not work.
