If I had access to a lift I could likely do the necessary repairs myself. Maybe I will invest in some ramps.

 

They do come in handy as long as you're using them safely. Good luck and happy Turkey Day ...

 

Here is s pic of it with the removable red handle (it's sort of like a key) coming off of the negative post. Sorry I don't have a brand name or part number. It was extra parts I had.
I've seen alternate battery quick disconnects in other auto parts stores with a rotary **** to quickly connect/disconnect.

 

that red handled disconnect is available at Tractor Supply co......I just bought one a week ago....lol
