Battery terminals?

Need battery terminals that can accept at least three 2ga connections. I don't need bling bling $50 gold connectors though. Been searching w/ google for 30 minutes. Any ideas?

Wrangler NW Power has all kinds, here's a link to the 2GA compression types, and around 5 bones to boot:

The only ones I see there accept two pieces of 2ga. I need at least three.. (one for the truck, one for the plow, and one to the 2nd battery).. and the second battery has one for the first battery and one for the stereo amps.

I could do it... using rings and nuts and bolts and stuff.. But I'd like to find something that has really really good electrical connections.

I was thinking, (I know, I shouldn't) you might do something that's a little more manageable. You need 4 positions really, right? 1 input from the alternator, 1 output to the truck's power distribution block, 1 output to the snowplow, and 1 output to the 2nd battery. So you get, say, a dual 2GA or whatever for the battery. Use one as the power input from the alternator and use the other to run a 1/0 cable to a junction block. (Also available from these guys.) From there run the three cables with 2 ga ring terminals you need. No?

Yeah, that would work. I guess that's the way I'll go if I can't find distribution right on the battery. Thanks again.
