Battery Harness

I'm looking to replace the battery harness in my Ford F-150 V8 302 5.0L. I don"t want to just replace the terminals. Any good web sites that might offer?

They could have been updated, I made my own from the parts store, Ford wanted some redic amount of money for the ones for my truck, does the harness hook up and work? If so shes all good.

Mine was different too.
It looked like the positive terminal clamp was one of the heavy duty copper type ends.

If you had ordered through one of the website I gave you, you would have gotten the Motorcraft piece at apprx. 30-50% off dealership price.

Well, I finally hooked up the harness and all I get now is a clicking noise. Lights work. The old positive harness had two terminals running to the starter, now theres only one with a different fitting I can't connect anywhere. Did ford sell me the wrong harness?
