Hey guys,

Another question for your expert opinion. I am trying to replace my negative battery cable. But I cant seem to get the bolt off the bottom of the engine block. Is there any other place I can mount my new cable to or is that it. My cable is worn and corroded.

btw, its an 89 LX V8

Thanks for your help
