Truck: 1991 HDJ-80, dual batteries.

Problem: bought two 27 sized batteries, yes one is an F. They fit perfectly in the "box," yet the positive and negative cables do not reach on the right battery's (facing the truck) terminals. I have yet to put the left one in.
I pulled the right box out with the idea of cutting off the the back part (already did some), but to no avail.
Thoughts?
 
I never had to cut my wires. I can fit a group 27 and 27F no issues. That’s actually the factory Fitment.

Group 27F is just the terminals reversed.

My wires are too short on the 27F side. Dunno what the 27 is.

Group 27 goes on one side
Group 27F goes on the other side.

Is your wiring factory? If so it should fit without issues.

These are the batteries I bought. The 27F has a second set of terminals. Problem with the 27F side is the cables are not reaching the primary terminals by roughly 1.75 +/- inches.

I see that the 27 (starting looks it's mounted perpendicular to the front of the truck(?)
