Trey_Dog650 Posted May 28, 2012 Report Posted May 28, 2012 Sooo i really want to get my Big 3 done soon, so i'm starting to get the things required but have questions as to where suitable locations for where my wires go are. I have yet to find the location for where the positive from the alt to the battery goes... maybe i can post some pics to see if you guys can help me out but first i think i know my grounding locations and i just want to verify Im guessing that either of these bolts would be good for my neg from batt to engine and then another ground from batt to i think strut tower, in the pic i think the nut that is top right would be best so if i can just get a few confirmations that would be great 13 Kia Forte Build! 07 Hyundai Accent Build ***Super Seller*** N8ball2013 And then he gets to say ok all you guys were right. im sorry for being a dummy poo poo head.
sprkn_ranger Posted May 28, 2012 Report Posted May 28, 2012 The engine ground looks like it would be fine, and the strut tower is good too as long as you mount it below the strut bar (I think that is). And make sure you sand/grind all the paint off down to bare, shiny metal on the actual strut tower.

Sweet and yup thats my strut bar and i was going to put it underneath. and yes sir will sand down nice and shiny now to figure out the positive wire from the alt lol 13 Kia Forte Build! 07 Hyundai Accent Build ***Super Seller*** N8ball2013 And then he gets to say ok all you guys were right. im sorry for being a dummy poo poo head.
sprkn_ranger Posted May 28, 2012 Report Posted May 28, 2012 The pos from the alt is the easy part...as long as you can reach it no prob lol. Oh and if you can run a ground from the alt bracket to the strut tower ground then that would be awesome too. I like overkill though, so it's not necessary lol.

Trey_Dog650 Posted May 28, 2012 Author Report Posted May 28, 2012 I'll do that as well! And my alt is in a tough spot lol! Barely accessible for me But I think I found it. I'm not sure tho. I'll post a pic if I can even get a clear shot lol 13 Kia Forte Build! 07 Hyundai Accent Build ***Super Seller*** N8ball2013 And then he gets to say ok all you guys were right. im sorry for being a dummy poo poo head.
tejarillo Posted May 30, 2012 Report Posted May 30, 2012 Yeah those locations look good make sure u sand of paint or corrosion to get the best contact and not make the wires to long because in theory you will loose voltage.
