THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS
Xtrusion Overland started supplying various brands that go hand in hand with our own products, to provide a complete service and help us grow. This includes products that are drop shipped. Please be advised that availability and lead times of those product are solely impacted by the third-party vendor's schedule. Many products are sold under an open inventory method, as the technology to sync inventories is limited, therefore please reach out if a specific product is needed by a specific date for us to double check with the supplier for you!
Any potential delay that occurs in the sourcing, processing, or drop shipment at the third party level will be communicated to the best of our ability to the customer.
ESTIMATED DATE | LEAD TIMES
The estimated lead time provided when you placed your order is JUST AN ESTIMATE. It is not a guarantee that the product will be shipped on that date. The estimated lead time gives you some sense of what the current times to source, cut, pack and ship takes. Many times the lead time can be shorter, but likewise it can extend, depending on factors such as previous demand and current supply. We manufacture many components in house, but extenuating circumstances such as down time for maintenance or unscheduled downtimes for repairs might impact dates as well as delays related to our sourced components. There is a constant flow of parts and shipments, and sometimes the visibility becomes a challenge to pinpoint exactly when your product will ship.
Feel free to check on your order at any time. Be aware that our customer service team may not be able to give you an exact date for completion but rest assured we are tracking your order and it will be built in the order that it was received.
Xtrusion Overland also reserves the right to cancel items from an order, offer an alternative substitution or issue refund accordingly when product is delayed at an unacceptable time frame or at the request of the customer.

We worked with the best diesel shop in town (and the best mechanic there) to bring you this! This upgraded battery cable kit replaces old/worn out battery cables in your Dodge Cummins-powered 2500/3500 for more power, better performance, and faster starts from your vehicle. Let's just say that when the factory made your original cables, they didn't make them to last.... and ours will likely outlast your truck!
Why do I need your cables?
You know how when it get's colder, it takes longer to get going? The issus is that the cables your truck came with, aren't the cables they started out as. They've got corrosion keeping the full amount of current from reaching the starter... or the previous guy/gal who owned your truck was a hack, leaving you to deal with their sub-par work. All of these things can contribute to issues with your electrical system. This also applies especially to Dodge/Ram Cummins Trucks (Diesel), where higher compression engines demand even cleaner and stronger current delivery to start reliably in cold conditions.
What makes these cables so special?
We're nerds for specs and finer details around here. None of that CCA (copper-clad aluminum) that's used in inferior products, or stereo installations. We only use fine-strand, SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) approved, pure copper cable. Then using a powerful electromechanical crimping machine, we crimp each solid-copper end, and finally finish the construction by adding a environmental seal made of marine grade heatshrink meeting MIL-I-23053/4. Also included are military style corrosion resistant battery connections and a MEGA fuse and holder. To make the entire install simpler, every end will be labeled for ease of installation.
Do I need a bigger alternator to run these cables?
No. Every vehicle can benefit from our "better than factory" cables. The years, along with environmental damage from rain/salt water/corrosion, can greatly impact your electrical system. Our customers have consistently reported that their vehicle starts faster, charges the battery better, and many times cured electrical gremlins that were brought on by compromised wiring.
1/0 GA or 2/0 GA? Which to choose?
As far as 1/0 GA vs 2/0 GA, it's really going to depend on what mods you're going to do to. If you're staying stock, then 1/0 GA is plenty, but if you're looking at modifying it down the road (winches/lights/etc), live where the thermometer bottoms out in the winter, and want to future proof, then you'd want 2/0 GA. The Jeep Cherokee XJ Big 7 Battery Cable Kit is also a common upgrade to improve overall charging efficiency and reduce voltage drop across the system.
These aren't just any old diesel "big 3" cables, these are the "Big 7" from Big7Kits!
