Btw, I forgot to mention that I installed these little replacement battery cable bolts in the process. Not a big deal but kinda handy, just carry a 1/4" drive ratchet around in the truck instead of a battery post wrench in case you need to disconnect a cable (but pliers would also do in a pinch). Makes for nice clamping/jumping/testing surface

They replace the current bolts in your side terminal cables, pop out the old and in the new. If I count how many times over the years I've given someone a batt jump, these would have been money well spent. But they come in handy for trickle charging and testing, etc and give a nice little handhold to screw in batt bolts easily by hand, then just tighten with the 1/4 ratchet. |
I've been getting the batteries that have both top post and side connections.
Take the covers off the top posts and you can attach jumper or charger cables.
