Remote mount batteries under the truck

out of the sleeves posted, it looks to me like the gorilla would be best. others look as if getting oil soaked would cause failure.
i had braided fiberglass sleeve on the starter cable that worked great until it was soaked. it became heavy, sagged, distorted and then separated.
i'm using 1/0 cable for ground and positive cables. heavy strand for ground, fine strand for positive. i have top and side post batteries which gives more connection points instead of jamming them all on the same side post. bolt was getting quite long and had more chance of shorting when swinging a wrench.

Yeah I thought it sounded like a good product, too. Thanks for the info and feedback.
