Battery terminal HELP?

[Stillmatic22 10+ year member]

Alright guys I need help finding the proper positive battery terminal. I have (2) 4 gauge wires and then I have the factory harness that needs to be hooked up to my battery. Is it ok to use a dual ring battery terminal and put ring terminals on the wires? Also, is there anydraw backs to using these types of terminals. I have one that accepts (2) 4 gauge, but no where to plug in my factory harness.

Can someone please direct me on where to find a terminal that will suit my needs?

Thanks in advance

Do you absolutely need two 4ga runs? can you just run, say one line of 1/0 to a distro block? then you could get the TMC.902k from phoenix gold. Or something similar. Just a recommondation. Let me know if you need a source for install parts and I'll help you out.

Sorry, I didn't clarify. I have (2) 4 gauges because 1 for the amp and the other for the big 3.

ahhh. ok

so yeah that post I recommended would work fine for you. or you could do the ring terminal thing if your not too concerned about looks.

I used ring terminals...no problems there.

Another reason to get a deep cycle battery, many of them have two sets of terminals //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif One for the stock wiring, another set for the audio/high-current applications.

Yeah, i've got a yellow top (sig) but, it's the small one. I can't fit the larger one. Anyhow thanks for all the responses.
