Heres my day....ran wire from the front all the way to the back and soldered all the terminals. It may seem like overkill but for the distance im running the wire i think its just right. Todays mission was to run 2 1/0 positive and 2 1/0 negative from the front to rear amp rack as well as a few other 1/0 runs. Pics may look boring but it was alot of work so i gotta post them!
This was me all day on my back from the planning (mapping the runs out) to the 1 at a time pushing, pulling, reaching, and fishing this wire.
now i just need to get it into the car, which should be easy since i already cut the hole. Its late on sunday and im gonna chill for the nite. More pics later!

you just ran a lot of money is how i see it haha, 1/0 aint cheap. thats why i get it from the welding ship and loom it. plus they throw in free clamps and a deal on the wire for me!

one of the most time consuming parts of an install is running the wire. especially when you're doing multiple runs. looking good though, keep up the progress pics.

yes.
I know i can use the chassis but i wanted the purest, alternator bracket/direct battery negative i could get. The distribution block ill be using (in the very back near the amps) will be grounded at the chassis as well. That makes 3 1/0 chassis grounds, 1 1/0 battery ground, and 2 Alternator bracket grounds. Should be more than plenty...maybe not that necessary but hey, they did buy the wire why not use it
Also....man i gotta say the 2150 kicks the stock batterys ASS. This truck turns very fast. Its a noticeable difference.
