Ryan k. Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 your h.o alt will wire just like it is only use 0 guage wire for the big 3. then a run of 0 guage runs from the positive on the front batt to the positive on the rear batt. and all 0 guage for grounds. you can use a d block to go down to what ever size power wire your amps will accept. do a little more research just to keep getting more familiar on some of this stuff before you try to do it. So i would wire up my alt the same way it already is just using 0 guage wire? Quote 2001 Dodge Ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) Alright thanks when you mean grounded to the front batterie do you just mean a negative lead going from the front batterie to the back batterie and then just ground the amps to the frame? Also could i hook up a tweeter and speaker to the same channel? yes a 0 gauge wire going from the front batt - to rear batt -. 0 gauge wire going from rear batt - to frame. 0 gauge from amp (or biggest wire amp will accept) - to rear batt. you can wire a tweeter and a midbass to the same amplifier AS LONG AS you have a crossover. it is highly recommended (in fact you should) that you buy a component set instead of finding a random crossover and tweeter and midbass and slapping it all together.

Alright thanks so you saying, take a wire from the negative on the batterie to the frame as a ground? and still ground the amp?

Ryan k. Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Later down on the rode, after have 2 12's for a bit, i'd like to add 2 more for a total of 4, could i just add another batterie coming off the batterie in the front like i did the first one? or would i have to run dual alternators, on top of another batterie?

Ryan k. Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 only way i can think of is building a wall in rx-8. dont forget you got little space to work with. Ya i know i wasnt thinking of doing it in a rx-8, probaly a truck or somthing if i do, do 4 subs, but i was just wondering if you'd wire up a second batterie in the back like you did the first one?
