Battery Terminal Issue - Need replacement options.

I just put on two new batter terminals. The positive one seems to be ok after tightening.

But the negitave one can still spin on the top no matter how tight I crank the bolt. I belive the unit was just too weak and bent instead of crushing into the top of the battery.

I am looking to replace both tops with new high quality battery terminals.

Please note I have all my cables with rings on the end that would have to bolt down onto the terminals.

Thanks for any recomendations.

After reading more it looks like I had the cheap LEAD terminals that end up bending.

I see brass terminals. Just want something strong that wont bend.

I'm going to guess that you don't know that the positive and negative posts are often different diameters and/or a different taper. The side that wouldn't tighten is probably the small diameter post and you had a large terminal clamp.

That would make sence They have to be very close in size...

I still dont know what set to buy for our cars.
