Battery Cables

Anyone know where to purchase the positive battery cables in a 1 gauge? I’ve managed to find the negative cables in a 1 gauge but not the positive.

I am in the process of making my own 2/0 cables for both my '09 and '92. If you don't mind doing a couple extra steps, you could make your own for less than half that price. Biggest expense for me was the cable. Paid $87.95 for 20' shipped to the house.

I agree. Some cable, military style clamps, a few eyes, solder slugs, and shrink tubing and you have new cables. For tools, you only need a way to cut the cables and a propane torch.

I definitely do t mind taking those extra steps, especially for the savings. Just wouldn’t know what tools are needed or where to purchase. I actually prefer keeping the cables at 1 gauge

A local welding supply would be a great place to get the cable and eyes. Welding cable is very flexible and has the most strands to handle the current needed along with the fact that the jacket is very tough! When it becomes time for a new cross-over cable, that's the route I'll go! Many LWS carry multiple colors these days. Black and Red seem to be standard in there inventory to make battery cables for their customers.

If you need cables only due to the ends at batteries I used these. Been working great for years https://www.genosgarage.com/product/ubt-840n/battery-cable-and-components

These guys were great, you build your cable on the site, they make it and ship it out to you.
