Toolmaker Battery Terminal Question


Guest

Recommended Posts

Posted

So I am looking to get a pair of these. http://www.droppinhzcaraudio.com/toolmaker-sae-top-post-4-lug-style-battery-terminals/

I want to know the diameter of the bolts. I want to be able to fit zero gauge terminals on them as well as smaller gauge terminals for the stock power/ground wires.

And since I will be doing the big 3 upgrade, I am likely going to just ground the alt to the chassis directly instead of routing it to the battery negative. If this is the case, I think I will only need a single positive toolmaker terminal as the negative post will only have one zero gauge ground and possibly the factory ground as well.

lol.. just change the eyelet ?????

if your stock wire is whatever.. put a eyelet that will fit...

its not rocket science....

I understand what you are saying but is it easy to find a small gauge ring terminal like 8 or 10 gauge that has a zero gauge size eyelet? I do not know what I could buy that.

No offence.. but my god......

you guys that buy at some places, ... ..

jesus.. do you want them to build the damn thing for you ??

my hell....

I guess I do not understand your frustration. I am trying to do a nice build for the first time. I am just trying to make sure I do not do something stupid.

First, buy the Toolmaker battery terminal.

Second, measure the bolt size. I would guess it is either 5/16 or 3/4.

Third, buy ring terminals with the appropriate size opening.

It is very easy to find 1/0, 4, and 8 gauge ring terminals with this size opening.

***Straight forward question with a straight forward answer.
