Ya I now he doesnt , thought thats the reason he doesnt have any ? Seems like a silly reason not to run them ? What if his wheels came loose would he go without them too LOL !

*shrug* That's alllllll on him. I'm the opposite. I'd rather blow a $5 fuse than ruin a 800 dollar amp.

The fuse is not to save the amp and I could care less if the amp blows, I can buy a new amp. I fuse to protect from being burned alive in an accident if the cable get shorted out ?

Didn't read much after half the second page but why not get four of these anl fuses and just change out the bolt for a longer one and mount your rails to the back? Then get the PVC cutting board and make a dato slot in it just deep enough for your rails to fit with extra rail sticking out the sides on each end so you can put power on each side n ground on each side... Idk if that's what your talking about but that was the idea I came up with reading all that

Heres the link to it, tho you could probably just buy one for what you would spend on my idea...

Look at this on eBay 200 AMP ANL Fuse Gold Holder Voodoo 2/0 1/0 0 gauge no terminals needed | eBay

Also has any of these guys worried about fuse bolts loosening up on them being their reason for not running fuses ever thought to use a lil locktite? For one thing you dont have to use the one that is pretty much permanent. And second even using a lil drop of the blue on them would keep them from ever backing out on their own imo. I've used locktite on tons of stuff... Think a car motor doesn't go through intense vibration, that's why head bolts are locktite'd from the factory. I also use lock tite on starter bolts and pully bolts etc etc etc
