Jhunt94 Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 So I'm ordering the xs D3400 and see if that would fix the problem the buy so 0/1 gauge to do big3 and I'm going to wait for tax refund to get H/O alt For the big three, I'd recommend some Sky High Car Audio cable if you want to make it yourself, or you can by a kit from them. 2007 Ford F-150 Reg.

alaskanzx5 Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 when you do the big 3 get a good solid ground for you alt case. a alt mounting bolt is a good idea but if not possible as close to where to alt mounts as possible. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

Gregorio253 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 so doing a ground from the alt bracket would be better then doing the engine block grounds 1/0 gauge or add another from alt bracket to frame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaskanzx5 Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 while the car is running the alt case is the ground for the entire car. you can do an engine ground and be fine im just saying the closer to the alt the better. if you alt is mounted to the head then the only thing connecting it to the block is the head studs so in this case I would ground the head imo. the better the ground for the alt the better your electrical should be. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

alaskanzx5 Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 you want a frame gound, the shorter the better. if you want you can ground to the battery but I would still do a frame ground to. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.
