Shyne151 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 (edited) What kind of wire are you trying to strip? These are what I use everyday for smaller gauge wire: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?P6...amp;dir=catalog These are what I use for when I'm tapping into wires: and for stripping/cutting 4gauge or larger: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?se...re&tool=all Edited September 28, 2009 by Shyne151 -Installer for Duke's Car Stereo 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix - Ported Eaton M90 S/C, 3.5" pulley, XS Power Headers, 1.9 Rockers, FWI, Poly Motor Mounts, Custom Tune.

JSwongerAA Posted September 30, 2009 Report Posted September 30, 2009 I'm a fan of the T-Rex style strippers. PartsExpress The built in cutter with efficiently cut 12g speaker wire, but you have to be careful not to stick too much in there otherwise you can ruin the pivot. They do take a little while to get dialed in but once you do you can take a wiring harness and strip 4 wires with one motion in the jaws. This stripper saves lots of time if you are going to be doing lots of deck installs. Also this style of stripper will automatically strip a coaxial antenna cable without going into the second layer. I still use a regular scissor style stripper for making larger larger cuts up to 4g.
stphating Posted September 30, 2009 Report Posted September 30, 2009 for heavy wire cutting i use the pcdj8 by matco tools, knipex also makes it. snapon pwcs9 to strip, and the 29cp to crimp ROCKFORD FOSGATE OPTIMA BATTERIES KENWOOD DC POWER 270XP 2 18" MAYHEMS
