bat terminals

[ccab 10+ year member]

dont I need some type of battery terminals when I do the big 3?

im using 0 gauge. if so is this the right kind?

im using 4 gauge for all my other wiring though. the only thing that will be 0 gauge is the big 3.

You dont NEED them but they make things look nicer imo. You can just put ring terminals at end of your wire and bolt it to your stock batt terminals.

you can use those kind if you want... i've always used these without issue, can run 4-5 runs of whatever size you want... not dictated but the size of the opening in those special terminals...

not to mention they are about 2$ from autozone

I've used the KonFused terminals in my last two projects. Nice terminals in my opinion.

The Knu terminals you linked will probably do just as well...

so how would I connect my 4 gauge wire that runs from the bat to fuse all the way through the car to amp etc..and hook up the 0 gauge to the bat as well for the big 3?

yeah but where is your wire running from the fuse to bat to amp? dont see a fuse at all..thats what im worried about using 4 gauge for everything else except big 3..I dont see how I can combine them both on the battery.

if that makes any sense..

Wire is wire, You can bolt the 4gauge and 0 gauge right next to each other lol its not going to make a difference lol and heres a better picture of the fuse.. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

You can bolt 4 /6 /8 or 1/0 gauge on the same bolt it dont matter as long as it all fits. Just use ring terminals and your good to go!
