Some how the transaction of the card that was declined went through a month later when I ordered 60ft of 2/0 ga from welding supply. I'm just trying to get my money back from this second order and also help some ssa members.

 

I have a 60 ft long piece of 2/0 ga so your big 3 will be cut to the size you need. Just measure each run and I will cut it to that length and add the terminals on the end.

 

The big 3 should be done on any car with a system or a lot of aftermarket accessories. It allows for better current flow and helps voltage drop.

 

If you don't know what the big 3 is it's upgrading the wires from:

 

  1. The positive terminal of the battery to the alternator positive.
  2. The negative terminal on the battery to the chassis (frame).
  3. The engine block to the chassis.

The best way to know how long you need is to get a rope/string and find the best/shortest, then measure it out. Make sure it isn't buy anything that moves or is hot. Also use zip ties to keep it from moving near those things.

 

If you need help figuring out where these things are on your car and which is the best place to do it I can try and help you out as much as I can.

 

I'm asking 50 shipped for each big 3 set.

Do you solder or crimp ends on I may be interested

I cut the wire ends and then put the wire in the hole of the terminal and flatten it with a large hammer. It doesn't come off at all. I've done this for the past big 3s on my 3 cars and 2 of my friends cars and works great.

Replied!!

I recommend investing in a hydraulic crimper..... For a definite connection between the wire and terminal.

Yea I've thought about it, but how I do it seems to work just as good. I've never had any problems and tried to pull it off but it stayed on.
