Lbox88 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Posted November 5, 2013 Go ahead and install it in the back, do the Big 3 with 1/0, do a 1/0 positive run to the back batt from the front, and find a good ground in the back for the negative. At least once a week, just be sure to put it on a charger to make sure the batteries get topped off since your alt won't fully charge them up. UBL | Build Log
