In all reality it was 88* on saturday, and today it is just barely 35*. Got snow this morning, and it's almost all gone already...

I need to go get hay, but the Dodge's electrical system is dead, and the Ford is in a shop for axle repairs due to an idiot before me who didn't fix it properly... These sterling axles are very picky about how they get assembled... I wish I had a Dana 80 Then I'd have 10 bolt rims too

Anybody know of anyplace to get good battery cables? These pre-made superstart cables and the NAPA equivalent just aren't lasting.

Cut the ends off of them, and crimp on new ones.

Crimping batt cable ends on is a waste of time, SOLDER the ****ers on.

Maybe just get a kit that has lead connectors and melt the lead onto the cable? Think that will work?
