Sunday afternoon the RattleCan (1996 XJ) would not start. Checking the battery cables I found my cables heavily corroded
Contacted XJwonders and by Thursday I had a complete battery cable set. Xcelent work!
Thanks XJwonders!

Hey Neal,
How many amps are the 2AWG good for? My LS swap has a 160 or 145 amp alternator (I'll have to check). Is that going to be ok? I'll need a few custom lengths. I'll pm you when I can measure.
*edit - some quick research says it should be good for about 180 amps. What's the amp rating for the fuse you include?
