Default Bad negative battery terminal and cable.

So apparently my cable and terminal are bad for the negative. The positive is perfectly fine so I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade to a ground wiring kit?

I know these are debatable as good, but I thought I would be able to use this problem as a reason for an upgrade of some sort. I know making your own would be good, but I would rather have it come nice looking than a bunch of random wires I put together.

Or would I be able to replace the stock negative with some 0 gauge wires and connecting them to a terminal.

your battery terminal is bad?

get a new battery, replace the cable. How does a cable go bad exactly?

i actually got a new battery and replaced the battery cable terminal. the negative cable had corrosion buildup that started getting into the wire. i cut the corroded parts off the wire before attaching a new terminal.
