Default How does on replace the battery terminal screw??

the metal on those bolts are so soft i end up stripping the nut

do i just keep twisting and the will come out? (to replace them)

and if its that simple that i can screw a new one in (what brand has the most muscle)

if anyone is starting an anti c6 movement let me in lol ;:)) :grouphug: :flag :seeya :boxing ;) :crazy:

The ends are very sorf. Just get hold of it with some needlenose vice grips & unscrew it. I got some replacements at Pep Boys when I replaced my battery.

You can use a 9/16" bolt.
