I'm at work making new battery cables for my 93 Ranger 4.0 and like an idiot, left my cables at home. Does anyone, off the top of there head know the stud size on the starter relay and the one down on the starter. I'm thinking they're both 5/16 but want to be sure, thanks

The studs on the solenoid are 5/16-18, but I'm not sure on the starter.

Some have been 8mmX1.25, but...

Thanks for the quick response. I got that smaller cable made and that's mainly the one I needed to know. Thank you

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
