Any chance of Ryan doing another run on his kits?
I used a Blackburn #3/0 Stranded to #4 Stranded Type-BC Single Conductor from Home Depot ($5) by removing the hole connector from one and combining it with another. Pictures aren't great.
Thanks zmcnelis. I picked up a couple of those copper connectors and ended up hooking to the marine post.
I got pissed off at the thought of going for another trip to the hardware store for a bolt and nut so I cut off the bolt from the OEM positive terminal and reused it.
Final result.... For now.
Now to fab a better clamp, but in the meantime:
3 trips to autozone (all a waste) and 1 trip to home depot later I'm at least back in business.

I used an even larger battery. Group 49. Direct fit, it only needed a plywood shim. The post is close enough to the edge.
Did a search. I'm not the only one... https://forum.ih8mud.com/100-series-cruisers/556173-battery-size-49-will-fit.html

Group 31 is actually larger and usually has more capacity than a group 49. The 31 size is usually destined for Heavy Duty applications. But both are a good improvement over the stock size.
