Battery Cables

Post by GPA2196 »

Gentlemen,

Apparently the wiring harness I have does not contain the battery cables. Could somebody tell me what gauge, length and finish are needed and also how they should be routed especially from the battery to the starter and battery to battery and grounding... Pictures would be great if possible... but any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tony

The thicknes inside yhe cable is 3/8" the lenght is 108" from eye to eye .
It looks the same as jeep only thicker.
It goes through the frame , if you look from behind to front it starts near the gastank [inside the frame and comes out near the transfercase.
I don t have pictures off it
good luck Peter

Tony,

See: http://www.g503.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=88395

You see a picture from a original cable
Inside the frame tube there are some special clips to hold the cable.
