Yes, you will need to take the diff out to get them out. If its the passenger side, you can get away with removing the mounts and twisting it down. But I would just take it all the way out to be safe and not warp the mounts.

starter is a lot easier to remove than the diff. just two bolts and the nut holding the wire. little tight but not too bad. if its the stock starter, be careful. Its heavier than it looks.

Let us know how you make out with getting a custom one made. I been there but never followed through.
I discovered mine in similar condition you describe. I had a real tough time locating " what I want". I am very perticular with me things have to be right I work with electricity everyday, everything has to be right even if its on my vehicle.
The pic attached is how I discovered mine. It appeared to be " rubbed" or " worn through" and under load/acceleration with truck lifting with awd it would rub and then eventually arc out. If you look cloae enough you can see the copper strands blown apart ( had a good ground at some point!!)This truck started to become problematic driving and I parked it took almost everything apart and found this.of course it took a lot of work but i found it.I feel like if I didn't the truck would have caught on fire. It happens.

Just FWI I have no connection with Interstate and don't even buy their batteries but the cables I had made at the store here came out very nice. And if, for example, you need a cable that has two different sizes coming out of a bat term like we use I think that they can do that in two different gauges. This was as of a few years ago, I assume it hasn't changed much but it's at least worth checking out.
