Mellow18 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Posted January 6, 2009 alright well i have 1/0 wire that i will run from the battery up front the rear battery.. stock alt. the amp i am going to be running is a RF T10001bd which will be pushing (2) 12'' RF dual 4 ohm subs. what i was wondering is,,, if i get a distribution box in the back that has fuses in it,do i still need to buy a fuse holder for the rear battery or will the dist. work? also.... how big do the fuses have to be in the front and in the back if im going to run a T10001bd and another amp for my highs?? and also i was wondering where to get a distributor and a fuse holder/fuses that arnt expensive... dude at the local shop charges 45 for the box and 45 for the fuse holder without a fuse...and 8$ per foot of 1/0... any input would be appriciated as im new to car audio. 2001 Black Monte Carlo SS chrome 20'' (1) Alpine i-9881 deck-ipod- (2) DC lvl 4XL 18''s-Walled- (1) DAT Hellfire - 2500.1-fused- (1) D3400 XS Power battery-fused- (2) CDT 6.5 comp (X) pioneer 6x9 set (1) RF T-400.4 (1) DC POWER ALT INSTALLED BY ROB FTW,Big3 (1) Viper 5901 Alarm + killer yorkies and chihuahas [EdgarCervantes] 4:31 pm: im in my room and out of nowere i hear bass im like oh shit sombody has bass in this city, i look out the window and its my mom bumping Gorilla Zoe
tacomabanga1986 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Posted January 6, 2009 get this for front battery to rear battery http://www.darvex.com/miva/merchant.mvc?Sc...Product_Count=1 and a 250-300amp fuse then get this from ur rear battery to amps http://www.darvex.com/miva/merchant.mvc?Sc...Product_Count=1 2 of them(you dont want a fused dist block cause all i think are made are 1/0 to 4guage and that amp needs atleast 0guage), and u can run what ever guage for mids n highs amp off that, and why i said 2 is so u can run another one for neg thats how i got mine then run a wire from front battery to rear battery pos, take a pos run it to a dist block, then off to amps then take a ground from rear battery(s) and run it to ground, and run another wire off rear battery and run to dist block so when u ground amps u can ground threw dist blocks and all grounding will go to one spot, and looks cleaner that way thats how mine is n hasn't let me down yet. hope this answers ur question, oh type meade in for cupon to get i think 5-10% discount for darvex here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit

tacomabanga1986 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Posted January 6, 2009 to tell the truth i dont see why most ppl do put fuses in back cause ur front fuse(s) will fuse the wire from the end of fuse block to the rear batterys n if u put one in line in front of rear battery only part it would affect is the other end of the wire from the end to the battery so its not really practical unless ur goin from battery to battery in back with a good distance between the wires, i say no need in fuseing befor rear battery unless u dont want to, i dont have it done in mine cause there not enulf room between the wires to the dist block to fit a fuse block lol, anyways if u wanted to u can but i dont see how it would work, but thats imo here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit
Mellow18 Posted January 6, 2009 Author Report Posted January 6, 2009 well im not sure either but its because i was told to put a fuse in the trunk to protect my amp...i guess if i have a power surge it will blow the fuse instead of my amp i wasnt told weather to put the fuse before the rear batt or after the rear batt but im guessing u wire from the front battery fuse to rear battery,then from the rear battery to the next fuse (16 inches away) then from that fuse to the distributor box followed by the amp...pleeeease correct me if im wrong lol 2001 Black Monte Carlo SS chrome 20'' (1) Alpine i-9881 deck-ipod- (2) DC lvl 4XL 18''s-Walled- (1) DAT Hellfire - 2500.1-fused- (1) D3400 XS Power battery-fused- (2) CDT 6.5 comp (X) pioneer 6x9 set (1) RF T-400.4 (1) DC POWER ALT INSTALLED BY ROB FTW,Big3 (1) Viper 5901 Alarm + killer yorkies and chihuahas [EdgarCervantes] 4:31 pm: im in my room and out of nowere i hear bass im like oh shit sombody has bass in this city, i look out the window and its my mom bumping Gorilla Zoe
