    Yeah, the KonFused is sort of similar but a little cleaner with the compression fittings.

    Dumb question maybe, but how would u hook jumper cables up to those posts ? They seem a bit fat and bulky to accommodate the jumper cables.

    Wow, the trash bear dug deep in the can to revive this old post.

    Connecting jumper cables isn't too big of an issue for me. The positive site connects pretty cleanly to the cable coming off of the terminal ( that piece that was trimmed down to fit). The ground side I typically connect to an available spot to the body or engine block, so no issues there.

    I just happen to be driving the Tacoma again while my other truck is in the shop, so I'll try to snap a couple of pictures and throw them up here for reference.

    Let's see if I remember how this works...




    Nine years later and it's a little worse for wear, but still works.

    Hahaha yeah sorry I was on a battery terminal kick and wanted some recs. Your thread just happened to have some great info and loved the terminals ha. They don’t make that model anymore sadly. Is that a compression lug that U have attached ? Are they easy to connect ? I think my Sdhq kit comes with that Also did u modify the negative side with the two cables coming one to engine and other from ground ?
