whats the best way to move my starter battery from under my hood to my cargo area? im gonna have airbags and theres not gonna be much room at ALL under there, so im gonna move my battery to the cargo, and just have all my batteries back there. should i just remove the little ring thing on the factory pos. wire and extend it to the rear of my car, and then just ground the battery somewhere in the back? or should i remove both pos and neg factory wires, and run a new pos wire to the rear(still grounding the battery somewhere in the back) if so, what ga. wire should i use? im kinda scared to do this cuase there is other things coming out of the pos factory wire under the hood and i have no clue what they are, and i cant really tell where the factory pos wire and ground wires are hooked to...

someone help me out!

btw, its a 97 explorer, 5.0 V8

Relocate it to the back and run wire up to the front to your alternator and power distrobution box. :)

run 0 guage wires. it's a straight forward process..

if you wanted, you could run 0 guage from the battery to a distro block and from that go to your alternator and factory battery cable.

as far as the negative side goes...ground the battery to the frame in the back.

you will also want to fuse/ circuit breaker the power wire from back to front..

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :slayer:
