I hate asking this...Big 3 =/


Recommended Posts

Before i asked, i did look around... Dont kill me...

We only get 30 questions per week on the Big 3.... i know, i know.. haha

Im about to do the big three in my car, i know how its done, i know what needs fused (etc.)...

My only question... My battery is in the rear of my car under the back seat... Can i run the 0g wire under my car and up into the floor?

I have to rip out half of my interior to re-run my RCA's and remote wire, but i was hoping i could run the 0g, under the car. Obviously i will seal up the hole into the floor pretty good, and i will use wire loom over the wire, i just wanted to make sure this wasn't a terrible idea...

Thanks for any input guys, i appreciate it!

ALL of my power wire is ran under my truck and zip tied to the frame rail.

make sure you use a grommet to go through floor so your wire doesnt get frayed. its still a possibility even with wire loom.

You can also just upgrade your battery ground in the rear- no full length run needed.

If you do go under- its not nearly stressful with grounds as it is with hot wires just make sure its nice and secure as well as a grommet on the transition and your good.

i saw a guy that used PVC under the car to protect the wire. looked good too.

If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

that was fritosaregood.

if i run wire under the car i wrap it in chafe wrap

i get it free at work but it can be bought online at places like this:

its a teflon wrap that you wrap around the wire and keeps it from getting cut or damaged
