Default XJwonders XJ battery cables
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?

Here's a custom job I just did for a customer.

He wanted a set up so he can use his winch either in the front or in the rear.

this is a 2 awg set. I advised him to not run anything less than 0 gauge toward the rear but he insisted on using 2 awg for everything. He paid $200 for the set up.

He has a 97 TJ.

that's for 2 awg. It would be more for 0 gauge. (Recommended because of the distance to the rear of jeep).

Shipping would be $18. Since it's so bulky.
