Its cool Driggs. Well, you wouldn't happen to know how to change the connectors or the batt cable would you?


Yeah. Done that before. They usually keep them behind the counter at Autozone. Might run you $5 for each one. Basically, you get the new connector and then cut the old one off. Strip back some of the insulation and clamp it down in the new terminal. It's just like a butt terminal or whatever, just larger.

I also had to replace the lead from the battery to my starter once. I had so much corrosion in the wire at the battery that the wire was shot. I didn't have enough slack to make up the distance. In that case, you get a terminal that already has a lead (I got a 4AWG lead on mine) from the battery post and a terminal for the starter. You can just disconnect the factory cable (runs in the loom that goes under the intake stuff up behind the fuse box) and cut the lead off if you want. Bolt the new lead to the starter in the same spot and run it however you want to the battery. If you got one with a battery terminal on it, you might find you need to get a longer bolt from Ace or someplace to be sure you can connect all those ECU wires to the post.

I don't have any detailed pics of the terminal, but you can see the starter lead pretty good in this picture.


You can sorta see the way my terminal looks in this picture.


It's sort of like this: <--lead to starter||TERMINAL||*nut*white wires*nut*
