Replacement/Upgraded Battery Cables
#17
Yeah thats the issue now, i can get a cheap hammer crimper and/or we have a drill press although not sure if that would help at all. Impossible to do the main cables with the hammer crimper?

I got copper lugs at ACE hardware and I used stranded copper welding cable from Air Gas. The sell it by the foot in any AWG you want, but then I own a Western Union style crimper too. I tinned the business ends before I put them in the lugs and crimped them. No issues in the last 3 years,

I ended up buying the positive cable harness.....by the time i was done trying to do it myself i could have bought it new....so i did. We don't have anything special on the truck and if we go that route, i can always rework it. I'm just going to "re-terminal" the negative side.
Thanks for all the help/ideas.
