Fusible Link Wire

Is the wire that goes from the positive battery terminal to the 80 AMP fuse in the box "fusible link" wire or ordinary wire?

I had to cut mine years ago to replace the terminal. I crimped a new end on, but it's annoyingly short. I'd like to replace the wire, but I'm not sure what to use.

depending what year you have the fusible links are in the fuse block by the battery .

Your lead off the battery could just be 8 gauge wire.

It's a 1986 22R. The wire is long enough (barely now) to reach from the box to a post on top of the battery terminal.

If Toyota hadn't confused matters by calling the fuse a fusible link, this would be a lot easier to figure out.
