Tried to send you a conversation, cims but your inbox is full.
Just cleared a spot in my PM for you. Thanks
These cables are fantastic. Thick as hell, and stout. Install was basic, even for my simple brain.
Did mine the other day. Just need a battery but will be later down the road.
PM sent. Exactly what I’ve been looking for.
Could not have been more pleased with these cables. They really proved have tired and weak my old cables were. @Fourrunner, your cables beat all others I was looking at by a long shot.
Thank you!
Thank you!
I thought one of the ground straps is for the starter bolt to frame.

Wasn't aware there was a cable there. Does it look OEM?
Good catch. @Fourrunner, you may need to update your 1st post of this thread. You do say there that one of the ground straps goes from the starter to frame.
However, the instructions that came with the cables said to install one ground cable from battery to frame and the other from battery to head. I went this route, as I saw others doing the same.
And I do have a ground cable (black, with yellow tracer) that runs from the starter to frame. It appears OEM.

I have the cable from the starter bolt to frame on mine as well. I plan to replace that one with the new cable and just have one wire from the battery terminal to the frame. I want to have the other side free for the winch ground wire.
FWIW, the oem cable from starter to frame is approx 12-13” long. Fourrunner can clarify his cable lengths, but the one from battery to head is approx 20” long and from battery to frame is approx 22” long.
I’m sure Fourrunner could make another cable that runs from starter to frame that matches the length of the oem cable. Just something to consider if you go from starter to frame with either his existing ones.

It looks like this was a mid to late 70's change. I can offer either version (cable to the head or cable to the starter) with the kits. Those lengths you mentioned, Rock Slide, are the lengths I use.
