Thanks Digger.
I'm hoping you or someone here can answer just a few more dumb-ass questions from me
.
- I'm planing to upgrade all neg (ground) and power cables to battery, starter and alternator.
- I also plan to install a winch, that I my only use occasionally (1 or 2 times per year is my guess as I'm pretty conservative with off roading but don't want to be stranded).
- I have some #4 awg black marine-grade wire already cut to size for ground wires, but not enough for all the power (+) wiring also.
Q1 - do you think #4 awg is sufficient given the winch? as far as other accessories probably only some LED front and rear lights on the bumpers.
Q2 - if I use #4 awg for the ground wires (fender to battery, battery to engine, engine to firewall), would it do me any good to use #2 for the positive wires (would it gain me anything or should I stay with same gauge for + and - wires)?
Q3 - My 94 shows the alternator wire going from alternator to in-line fuse, then from in-line fuse to the PDC connected to a 60A PDC fuse (PWR2). Would it work just as well to not go to the PDC at all but instead go with upgraded wire form alternator to a bolt-down "Mega" fuse, then from "Mega" fuse straight to battery?
thanks in advance!
