ehall8702 Posted December 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2018 Ended up just getting the skyhigh 1/0 oversized, didn't want to chance it cause I cant afford to buy it again for a while and need to focus on new batteries and then a sub upgrade. Hopefully I don't run into any issues with the 1/0 wire lugs I bought. May have to sacrifice a few strands to make em fit but I'll worry about that when I get everything I guess.

GottemGood1214 Posted December 29, 2018 Report Share Posted December 29, 2018 Find a welding shop and see if you can have there old welding leads. I just picked up 2-50’ cables free. You’d be surprised how many shops throw that stuff away. Here’s one of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehall8702 Posted December 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2018 Well I am the only.welding shop in a 100 mile radius, and we aren't ready to upgrade leads yet or that would have been the ideal option, hopefully this skyhigh 1/0 will work out well for me. 2009 Silverado 1500, 7.5" lift, 37x12.50r17s, Built Gen 4 5.3L ( 4.8l flat pistons, decked 243s, SS2 Cam, Pac 1218 springs, ported intake, 120mm TB, Long tubes, 3" duals HP tuner software tuned by me), 4l80e swapped and 4.56 gears.

ehall8702 Posted December 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 That's reassuring to hear, kinda skeptical and been nagging in the back of my brain that maybe I made a mistake, glad to hear I didn't. Started measuring and I'll have enough to double run everything except my amps for now.

Now I need like 3 or 4 hours on the lift at work to get it all done. My only worries now are will all the terminals fit on my battery or not!
