Give it a little tug and the end results.
I'm surprised these trucks just don't catch fire every day.
Sense of got this truck a few weeks back all I've been doing is cleaning up problems....... unbelievable.

Nice. Those crimpers are awesome. I made new battery cables myself 2 weeks ago. Using Chinese hydraulic crimper (about 35 bucks). Used 2/0 and 4 gauge wire. A pre-made set of cables for my K1500 would set me back $250 probably $350 total with shipping. For that money I'll have made cable sets for my K1500 and M1028. I can definitely recommend getting one of those crimpers in your arsenal of tools.

I was having battery issues, almost bought new ones and now I haven't had any issues for 2 weeks.

Next project will be glow plug harnesses for my trucks. Will get rid of the fuse-able links and put a 8 way fuse block in there.

Good luck with your project.
