Jack of all trades
You got 2/0 wire and termainals?

 

[transman731]

i only keep 4/0 (marine grade)
sorry, but that's the most common size.

len, not to kick you while your down, but did i ever tell you about people who put screws in battery terminals.

 

[Rox&Mud]

Well that should work being that it is twice the size of what my truck calls for.
I was going to make them myself but I don't have a good way to put the connectors on cable of that size.
I'm heading over after 4:30 to get the Jeep.

West marine has marine grade wire and terminals in stock up to 0/2

4/0 is half the size of 2/0 fyi

According to the chart I was looking at 2/0 is .36" and 4/0 is .41" bare dia
While not twice the size it is 4/0 is bigger.
