JeremyN Posted May 29, 2010 Report Posted May 29, 2010 Solder is actually easier to take off just re-heat it and viola, the terminal or connection will pull right apart. Solder FTW Ive used that method to reuse connectors sometimes at the shop I used to work at back in the early 90's Quote 2 12" Jeff Vue Customs 1 set MB Quart FSB 216 in doors1 American Bass 100.1 on sub1 Hertz EP2 on doorsJVC deck IPOD controlStock 105 amp alt DD-1big 3new build in Chevy caviler http://www.stevemead...chevy-cavalier/last set up in the ZX2 http://www.stevemead...-current-build/old build log http://www.stevemead...-1998-ford-zx2/ Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, debt is the money of slaves.

Decaf Posted May 29, 2010 Report Posted May 29, 2010 solder is not very conductive, like less than 25% a hydraulic crimp is the best thing u can ever do to terminate large gauge wire theres so much pressure it turns the stranded wire into a solid chunk Quote
STEvil Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 Best: Hydraulic crimp. Second best: Solder then hammer/vise. Third best: solder fourth best: weak-ass crimping tools. Quote MickyMcD - "Capable of making some serious trouser flapping volumes at where's-my-testicles frequencies, the Servo-Drives used to be fairly jaw dropping..." Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.
Boon Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 Best: Hydraulic crimp. Second best: Solder then hammer/vise. Third best: solder fourth best: weak-ass crimping tools. 4 year old thread that's full of "Yeah solder is the bestest!" fails, haha. As for your list... where does hex crimp with a 3ft crimping tool come in... IMO it beats soldering but that's just me. Quote 10.x volts fo' life!

Hydraulic is a form of hex crimping, just use a hydraulic pump to run the crimper instead of mechanical force... so mechanical force would be 1.2 probably..

JeremyN Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 this is what I always do ............I crimp then solder and heatshrink.......its the method I learned by my boss back in the day Quote 2 12" Jeff Vue Customs 1 set MB Quart FSB 216 in doors1 American Bass 100.1 on sub1 Hertz EP2 on doorsJVC deck IPOD controlStock 105 amp alt DD-1big 3new build in Chevy caviler http://www.stevemead...chevy-cavalier/last set up in the ZX2 http://www.stevemead...-current-build/old build log http://www.stevemead...-1998-ford-zx2/ Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, debt is the money of slaves.
