Positive battery cable?
I've done some searches and i can find the negative cable for sale but not the positive cable. Is the positive cable a dealer only item?

you could buy a 51" from Oreilly auto parts andrun your own. Just cut the ends and leave the old one in the harness

I got these for $105 and they work great. https://www.ksuspensionfab.com/store...e_Upgrade.html
However if all you are needing right now is one battery cable, you can get them at any auto parts store, Walmart, Tractor Supply, Rural King, and many other places.

Could do what I do build it yourself. Just get the right gauge black wires. Cut the rubber off the tips crimp battery ring terminals to all the ends (if you can solder them) then heat shrink the ends and mount one to the block and the other to the body by the battery. Then use a marine battery post terminal slid the ring terminals onto it bolt it down. And then use black wire loom to protect your wires. I also used red wire loom for all my positive wires. I hope this helps! Also make sure to sand the contact points you will have your ground wires mounted to.
*******I apologize my friends. I was thinking of the ground side. But essentially do the same thing with the positive side! Good luck!********

Those prices are INSANE.
I ordered a set of 4AWG cables for $80 from 5-90
They were precut to my year of XJ.
He's inactive and his site is gone.
Did he pass?

No one knows for sure, but he was having some personal problems for a while, and IIRC was homeless. Shame, he did some great work and his site was a wealth of knowledge.
Mean Lemons is the way to go now, or DIY. Neal's cables are quality, and reasonable. Remember, prices for copper fluctuate, so prices go up for everyone in the chain when it gets more expensive to produce.
