Default Let me reword my battery post question
How are you guys getting your starter wire, a 4 gauge amp wire, and maybe one or two (battery tender for example) other power wires on the positive and negative battery posts? Thanks in advance for any responses.

Mine all fit fine with the right size ring terminals offset so they are not all stacked up

There's nothing that says you can't change your battery bolt to one just a tad longer to accommodate your needs either.

Thanks for the responses. I just found a lug/screw made by Rockford Fosgate that enables you to tighten down your starter wire, then allows you attach your amp wire to the top of it. Basically allowing you to stack multiple eye terminals. Also, you can remove the amp wire without interrupting the starter wire if need be. Hopefully it’s not too tall.

My problem is the lead part of the battery that makes contact with the ring terminal from the starter is not flush with the top of the battery, its indented a bit. Hard to explain. It's difficult to add another ring terminal from the amp. Hope this makes sense.

Ok, disregard the links. After I researched them a bit more, they are the wrong size thread size for a motorcycle battery. Sorry for the confusion.
