    OK, gotta question. If I got one of these:

    How do I hook up the regular positive battery wire? I do NOT want to cut the factory ring terminal off of it.

    Or, is there another terminal with one 0 guage, one 4 guage and a place to connect a ring terminal? I've looked but haven't found one.

    I want the 0 guage because I'm upgrading my power wire from 4 to 0 and I want the 4 guage so I can do "The Big 3".

    Thanks for any input about terminals you can provide.

    If your upgrading wires, wouldn't you be replacing that wire anyways? Thus rendering that ring useless?

    if your upgrading your factory 4 gauge to aftermarket 0 gauge, your 4 gauge will no longer be in the truck...thus you will not have to cut factory wires, just remove them.
