[QUOTE="Got_Bass89, post: 5063884, member: 587107"] Ground amp to back battery... Pos and neg from back battery to amp... Ground your back battery to FRAME or front battery if you wanna do another 1/0 run. Front battery is grounded to frame anyways so they would share the same common ground no matter what... As for battery isolator... If you don't bump with car off don't use one.. Actually takes a tiny bit of your voltage... Batterys will level out together even if they don't have the same resting voltage. My advice hook the back battery up start it up for a min and let sit for a while and they will level out... If they off by too much causes a little strain on alternator but if you let it sit and settle for while be all good... [/QUOTE]
