Custom Battery Cables + New Alternator = brand new truck

"I had some charging issues on my 2000 Ram 2500. Classic crossover cable issue. After replacing my old cables with the much heavier duty, super high quality cables (and alternator for good measure) my truck runs much smoother, accessories don’t flinch, and all my electrical issues have disappeared. Highly recommend."

2001 ram 2500

"One of the best purchases I have made for this truck. Believe it or not these cables fixed my ghost shifting issue as well as what seemed like a power surge when my truck was running. Be sure to check your stock cables thoroughly, my negative was broken on the driver side which caused several issues. They also look great!!!"

Robert H. (5/5)

Great kit

"High quality"

Victor G. (5/5)

Honest opinion

"To start off with the quality of the product is top tier. A great upgrade for your truck. Now for the the downsides. The battery terminal connections are not good at all for these cable I had to put a few of the at almost a 90 degree kink. The cables them selfs are a bit too long and the barrel crimps that they send you could be a little bit better of quality and for these reasons that’s why I’m only giving 4 stars"
