Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds Caleb_Smith New User Jul 13, 2008, 5:30 PM Post #3 of 4 (2425 views) Re: Help With A Battery Sign In k Thank you, one more ?, is there away i can make my cables top post? way2old Veteran / Moderator Jul 13, 2008, 5:44 PM Post #4 of 4 (2424 views) Re: Help With A Battery Sign In You can purchase adapters or replace the cable ends with the top post type. Then you will need to be sure the new battery will clear under the hood. The best connection will be if you replace the terminal ends and install a top post battery. Just be sure the cables will be long enough to install on the new battery. Good luck.
