SMZ2 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Im waiting to get my loom i live in a state with no snow so i dont need to be perfect That looks good! 2 positive runs and a single negative run? I have seen that metal clip before in stores and have used the plastic ones before. Just follow the brake lines? That's what the wire is running next to correct?

OldsBoomer Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 So two or more should go under the vehicle? I'm planning on doing two runs of positive under the vehicle myself... with techflex and wire loom.What model of tech flex? Depending on the cost You could also use pvc pipe.The kind that fits 1/0... probably going to go with some welding wire because there is a local dealer here with great prices plus its ofc... but skyhigh wire is looking promising too... I think it was around 13 dollars for 50' but it will also be to clean up things and color code once the wire gets to the amps. How would I attach the pvc pipe to the frame?PVC pipe hangers. I could only use one because of placement on the frame rail. But I used a fawk ton of Heavy Duty zip ties so they can hold over 40lbs in multiple locationsDo you have pictures? Also did you purchase this at a local hardware store? (ex. Lowes or Home Depot) Pics of the PVC pipe? Suburban Coming Soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterJohnson Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 How much amperage are you running off ur alt and front battery? Also if ur running that much wire outside I'd techflex and PVC and definitely run welding cable, much more durable. Do it once and ur done don't half ass things is my personal opinion Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HunterJohnson Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Why would you tech flex and PVC? Why not just 1 I like techflex for engine bay and positive run just for that extra protection.

big dee Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 I always run under the vehicle no mater what . If something goes wrong I would much rather gave the wire up against a metal frame versus carpet lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nates_Veloster Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 You guys have me thinking of running mine under the car for the simple fact it would be faster than trying to run under the carpet.
