Positive Battery cable - 03/16/17 11:51 PM
Can any body tell me what the part number for the positive battery cable is for a 1985 D250 5.2 engine?
Also what other years would work in this truck?
Thanks Bill

If you are looking for an OE style/concourse resto cable please ignore the rest of this post.
Battery cables are mostly serviced with some form of generic.
If you are looking for functional, measure what you need and get the closest fit from your local AP store. Buy the heaviest gauge cable offered.
Or make your own. NAPA usually carries heavy cable and ends. Crimp, solder and shrink wrap to get a neat and functional cable in the length you need.

Thanks for reply ahy but, this truck is a one owner and low miles and would like to try and get OE style cables.
It has cables on it they are just cracked, hard, splitting.
reason for needing the p/n's.
