Late-Model OE-style Battery Terminals ~$10ea @ NAPA

The "lead-free" description is misleading. The other solder-on terminals are also lead-free; they're brass or copper with a tin or silver-solder coating.

But this style may be a better fix if the damaged terminal is this style since it can merely be unbolted & replaced (no soldering) if the original ring terminals are undamaged. Some configurations are commercially available new, like this one which probably fits many '92-96 gas F-series & Broncos.

If these new ring terminals must be soldered on, the wires should be cleaned & tinned (coated with fresh solder) first. Then these rings can be crimped on & soldered to the tinned wires, but that prevents them from ever being removed/reused.
