John,
O'Reilly Auto Parts can generally get anything you want in a matter of a few days... I generally avoid AutoZone cause they tend to try to sell you whatever is on the shelf instead of taking the trime and trouble to order the part you prefer.
If the battery lasted that long, I highly doubt that you have issues elsewhere in the charging system...If it ain't broke, don't fix it...However, It is probably a good idea to replace your battery cables if they are the same age or older.
