Battery Cable End Replacment Options
The positive cable end on my 95 is in pretty bad shape. I know I can buy the replacement cables, but I'd like to just replace the end. The only thing I've found is at Orielly's and its a factory style connection with three short ends to splice into the original cables. Is there anything else out there? I'd rather find a terminal end and not add splices in the cables if possible.

If your cable has enough slack, you should be able to crimp on another terminal end. I have a hydraulic terminal end crimper, but Florida is about 3000 miles too far. An automotive electrical shop should be able to help you for a few bucks.

** The 500337 part number works for many vendors and the terminals will do 0-2 gauge cable.
Halfway down in this PDF look at the 500724 - that's what these should look like assemblled!
