94jettameowpsst Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Okay so after reading through this site i realize more and more that i dont know nearly as much as i thought i may have so i have a question about wiring. I have an optima yellow up front in my jeep and 2 d3400's in back, now how the hell do you run all the wires to the batteries without being a complete utter cluste f*ck?? I have 2 runs of 0 from front to back so that's 2 per terminal right there, one pos and neg for my component amp and 2 0 gauge pos and negative for my sub amp NOT including the grounds to the chassis. Is there some sort of busbar thats made for apps like this? I know its not much but its becoming a pain with only the 2 little bolt connectors into these batteries. 150.1 @ 38hz142.3 @ 20hz (windows down)Only 2 batteries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKE-2U Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Toolmaker or projectdb make distro blocks that go on top or batteries. Otherwise get bigger bolts on the d3400s.

I was going to buy a newer jeep but first off, i know nothing about the v8 models, and secondly, the 6's get the same gas mileage regardless if its an 87 or an 07. (plus i've heard the older ones are far more reliable anyways) There seems to be a little less room in the newer ones, what do you think? 150.1 @ 38hz142.3 @ 20hz (windows down)Only 2 batteries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKE-2U Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 First time i hae ever owned a bigger vehicle. I love it. very nice for my 2 15's. v-8 has a nice sound to it with a little more get up and go then the v-6 commander i drove which share the same 6 cylinder IIRC. Farely easy to work on and run wires, could be a bit bigger and better on gas mileage but i am adjusting to it. The V-8 is pretty identical to any other V-8 you would get. Seems straight forwarrd as far as maintance and things. 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee LaredoPioneer AVH- 3200DVD2/0 Flex-A-Prene Welding Cable (2) Fully Loaded Fi Sp4's dual 1-------> My YouTube Channel <------- Needs more power those woofers will laugh at that turd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
