Posted April 23, 200817 yr heres the situation..from my battery under the hood to the back of my truck is about 10 feet..but im giving a extra 3 feet better to have more then less..and im also running 2 batteries under the hood with 2 batteries in the back..now keep in mind i have never installed my own stuff ive always had people i know and trust do it..so im just buying the wires for them..so by my calculations i should need somewhere around 25-30 feet of 0 guage wire to fulfill this project? by the way the 2 batteries in front will be about 4 feet apart from each other..1 on each side and in the back the other 2 batteries will be next to each other.and there will be 2 amps back there has well..currently i have 60 feet of 0 guage kicker wire..

April 23, 200817 yr Why not just get a full spool? You're already on the large side of the wire. Might as well just get 50'.

April 23, 200817 yr Buy a 100' spool of string (maybe $2?).Use it to determine how long your runs need to be.Run wires.The end.so you guys are saying i need more then 60 feet?No, I think you're just complicating things. You should have stated up front that you had 60 feet of power wire already. Your 60 feet should be MORE than enough. Edited April 23, 200817 yr by Big E

You can probably sell one of those kits, or hold it for later use.
April 23, 200817 yr Author ya i think i have enough..has of right now i got 69 feet of 0 guage actually not the 60 feet i thought i had..
