    The same shit everyone else has.
    Long story short... Im working on hooking up my auxiliary fuse block and I need to know the size of the nuts on both the positive and negative terminals on the battery. I am at work and cannot check them. I plan on stopping at the hardware store right after work to grab some new hardware.

    I need to know...

    - nut size and pitch on the negative battery terminal.
    - nut size and pitch on the top of the positive battery terminal.

    Thanks :beer:

    Pretty sure the terminals are M6X1 and the one on top of the positive lead is M8X1.25

    Correct me if I'm wrong though. 80% sure
