[QUOTE="shizzzon, post: 8338034, member: 590338"] You were told wrong. Also, jesus that wire is expensive. 4/0 can be had for less than $4/ft all day everyday. You need to parallel those 2 batts together, keep em grounded to the frame and run a dedicated ground from front to rear. Do you like using copper or steel wire? I would assume copper. This is why front to rear ground is important but should not be the only ground due to resistance. That's why grounding to frame is also preferred. IF your vehicle used a positive ground, then we'd be doing the same thing with the power cables instead of the ground cables. [/QUOTE]
