tonedeaf Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 all bare metal.. my rear bank is connected to the front by 0 gauge and my rear bank is grounded by 4 gauge... would 2 runs of zero help alot back there or is one enough? its like a one foot run. So your running 1/0 then just decided to ground the rear with 4? That and why up the ground wires in 1/0 and not the power wire from alt to front battery? Quote
Platinumzs1k Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Posted July 19, 2011 its grounded in 4 because i had all 4 gauge wires when i first started. and i didn't up the alt wire up front because my alternator is extremely difficult to reach. it might need to be up on a lift.

Where at, down below the engine by the driver side axle, next to your A/C condenser? Mine was too...wasnt too bad to reach to get to. As I said though, this will make a difference. Do it and the rear battery ground asap. If you can, run a second 1/0 awg wire from front to rear for negative, as this is normally better, but not terribly necessary. Just get them done. Quote
Platinumzs1k Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Posted July 19, 2011 im def gonna do it asap but the alternator is on the passenger side on the bottom.
