Eh, too bad I live in Washington, otherwise I'd install everything for you for free if you bought the materials necessary. I say, just find someone local that knows a thing or two and don't go into the shop. Installing an alternator isn't really rocket science. If you're confused about anything, the internet has a lot of useful information for beginners.

G'luck with it and Nice alternator.

You will not need 15 ring terminals for a big three upgrade. 6 is what you should need at the max.

 

[AndrewHilbert 10+ year member]

yeah i thought so but all the local shops want double per ring so what the hell lol beter to have extra then non at all :0 im hoping they dont say those batery terminals are not good enoght ;(

 

[AndrewHilbert 10+ year member]

was the 15 feet of 0/1 all i would need? they guy at shop said 20ish but i think thats retarted lol

 

[Qbenjamin 10+ year member]

15ft is more thean enough just to do the big 3.
