Default Extreme Team install

Possibly a dumb question, but I am installing a lithium battery from Extreme Team in a 2013 precedent. The ring terminals from the cart are too small so I must cut and install new ones. I'm just curious if anyone knows exactly what size I need to get. Controller and motor are stock.

Holes need to be 3/8". Drill them out as mentioned above or you can buy some 3/8" terminals for 2 gauge cable at autozone.

I drilled mine out where needed. Use the proper tool (something like this: https://www.amazon.com/CO-Z-Cobalt-M...5422472&sr=8-2) and not just a big drill bit or you'll wad stuff up (don't ask me how I know)......

A pencil die grinder or dremel with a burr bit works way better so you don’t snaggle the terminal.

However in doing so, you remove the finish of the terminal which opens it up for corrosion if it’s a tin plated or gold plated terminal.

Other down side to replacing the terminals with proper 3/8 terminals is you need the correct tool to crimp them. Your crusty old stripper/crimper combo ain’t gonna cut it. But that is the better way to do it.

I got a short cable to use for SOC from Blake. He advised using a stepdrill to open up ring Terminals. Worked perfect and real easy

What size battery did you get from them and do you have pictures of it installed?

I got the 48V/100AH version. At work right now so no pics of the install, but looks just like a few that have put the Extreme Team in their Precedent. Fits nicely on the driver's side and leaves a ton of room in the battery compartment.

Also, thanks for the suggestion to use a step up bit and drill it out, worked perfect.

Couple questions. I had a plug and play light kit and reducer that had this blue wire that attached to a negative post of one of the old batteries. How do I get this to work with the lithium battery? Also this red wire comes out of a group of wires coming from the charging receptical. I guess this one won’t be needed anymore since I am putting in an onboard charger.

On which batteries were the wires connected to before you took them out? That will determine what voltage you need to reconnect them to. Either 48v or 12v output on the lithium.
