Well i just looked through the phonebook, and all they cant make me any cables....I have to get one though autozone, just great
Before you panic, there are about a gazillion threads in this site, and all other truck sites, about doing away with that silly HOT cable that has the terminal made in the middle of it.
What I did was, (and I just remodeled my existing cable and didn't spend over five bucks) cut the lead terminals off, as close to the ends as possible, saving as much cable as possible.
I installed MARINE style terminal/adapters to the lead posts of the batteries.
I crimped 2/0, if I remember correctly, COPPER RING-STYLE LUGs to all the cable ends.
Special crimpers are nice, but not at all necessary.
I have crimped dozens by clamping a short length of angle-iron in a drill-press vise (not on the press), and using the "trough" of the angle-iron as sort of an anvil, and making two deep dimples in the copper with a pointy-ended punch and big hammer.
Saturate the stripped ends of the cables with Vaseline, prior to sticking them in the copper lugs, and this will prevent any corrossion/oxidation from growing in there.
If you like, you can dress up your work with some big heat-shrink tube, RED on HOT and BLACK on GROUND.
What happens is that you make TWO cables out of the one, with the section between batteries being a seperate cable by itself.
After you get this done, then the next time you need batteries, you can use Group 30-S or Group 31-S STUD-TYPE batteries, like the big trucks use.
They will fit right in the existing holders and are a lot better than the Group 27-F that came in these trucks.
The COPPER LUGS are way superior to the old trouble-some clamp-on lead style ends, and a lot less headache to deal with.
I have seven trucks in the yard, with all being converted this way, and untelling how many I have had in the past.
