Dual Battery Auxiliary Wire Run

This is our first time using the hydraulic crimper. We chose the wire route, crimped the main eyelets, and ran the 2 gauge auxiliary wire to the rear.  We considered running the wire on the frame rail outside the vehicle but in the end went with running the wire along the door sills.  We chose 2 gauge wire since it was more than enough to provide power to the 100 gauge blue sea fuse block as well as another major electrical load, like an inverter, air pump, etc.


Here are links to the crimper, wire (although we got 30' not 100') and eyelets we used in the video.
