Battery terminal panel

[StangPhD]

Has anyone made one for a battery relocation kit? I don't feel like paying 300 for the Lakewood kit.

What exactly are you talking about?

[StangPhD]

Yes, that is it.

Check into power distribution posts or blocks then. That may get you in the direction you are wanting to go. I know summit and jegs carry some. The lakewood one is nice looking though.

4th item down. Looks like it could work. Oem terminals would go on bottom and Relocation wires on top.

Only only 5-6 bucks each.

I used something similar to what Jeremy posted and made my own bracket. Just about $100 in materials for the whole relocation. Box, 0 ga cable, terminals and fuse.

The posts are way too big. I can't find any terminals to fit them.

 

[rcm90]

What size posts did you get? I would imagine wherever you bought the posts, they sell terminals in the same size.

 

[StangPhD]

The posts are actually charging posts and that is why they are large. I ordered a different set that will fit properly.

Relocation done and is super clean.......posting pics this evening.

Glad everything went well I'm looking forward to the pics. Going to do a relocation over winter.

Total cost minus the cost of the wrong terminals was close to 100 bucks. I used 2awg welding cable(18 feet of red and 18 feet of black), a remote terminal bracket/post assembly, copper lugs, brass terminals and a summit box........all from eBay. I ran the cables inside the car under the rug and under the back seat. I used the fire wall grommet on the passenger side. I am very happy with it.

so you didn't
use the post type to retain the factory battery terminals

 

[StangPhD]

No. The cables would have been way too long. This was easy as pie.
