Not to sound to basic, but loosen nuts that hold cables on, remove cable, replace with new cable...... Id doesn't get any more simple than that.... Sorry. You can go to any auto parts store and get the replacement cables, or get thicker wire and ends and make them yourself..... Best way!! Use minimum 4awg wire, and 8awg for your connection from batt. to starter relay.... While you're doing that though, you should also add a 4awg wire from your Alt. to your Starter Relay post (dont forget the 150 amp inline fuse on this wire if you do though). Its pretty straight forward, but here's a link that's really helpful.... Click HERE!!

Hope this helps, GOod LUck:thumbsup:
