But thanks Richard Nance!  The ones I ordered were cheap enough, and means I don't have to monkey around with finding just the right size bolts to thread into a double nut.

Found them on eBay using the part number.

I'm pretty sure I just found what I'm looking for on eBay, made by Grote, part number 84-9185.  So I just had a five pack shipped to my sister's house, which is our next destination.  SWEET!!!

double nut not barrel nut.

you could get a barrel nut at the hardware store and add another stud or bolt.

I guess I'm just not sure what they are called, but I've seen them before and know they exist.


On the top of our Trojan batteries are threaded posts. Because of our solar panel system and inverter, with all the wires connected, a couple of the posts are too short, and the nut only snugs down to where you can still see around half the threads inside the nut.


I could have sworn someone made battery post extenders specifically for this style of golf cart battery that made the threaded stud longer, and I even remember seeing a block you could bolt to that terminal that Y'd off and gave you two threaded posts sticking up.


Anyone know what these are called, and where the heck I can find them?


Thanks!
