Also to me it looks like the lower amp ring terminals are on the bottom of the post.
High current first then the low amp rings. 100 INCH pound torque. |

Re: Anyone know why my car destroyed my battery?
That shunt or fuse [can't tell from the pics] didn't help either. Vibration and cart flexing can cause the rigid fuse to "pry" on the post and potentially cause it to stretch and loosen. I have been told, only flexible batt cables should be clamped/bolted to battery posts. Anyone here feel free to correct me if I am wrong as I am always learning.

Bad connection, large wire goes on first then the smaller wires.

Re: Anyone know why my car destroyed my battery?
Not the car's fault... Crappy connection... Always place the larger high amperage connection on first followed by the smaller low amp items.
