Where to buy 4 ga. Alternator wire....20 ft?

[jason07]

I'm trying to wire up the alternator on the race car. Can anyone point me in the right direction where I can get 20 feet without costing an arm and a leg?

Thanks

Walmart. Use the car amplifier kit. Or a car audio store, you can buy it by the foot.

Jason, car amplifier wire will work but is not as good of quality as welding cable. The Ace hardware store by my house sells exactly what you are looking for by the foot.

Not spending an arm and a leg on copper? Hell, when you figure that out, let us know.

Maybe a circle track shop if the above options dont work.

Thanks Rick. I will check that place out tomorrow. I need to go by the scrap metal place that Brooks goes to. I need to mount all my electronics.

If you got 20 feet I will grab it from you.

super cheap at welding supply store and more flexible then the car audio stuff.

if I had it to do all over again, I wouldn't have gone with the amp wire I bought initially - it didn't last long. A simple zip tie in the wrong place pulled it too tight and rubbed a hole in the liner, grounding out the cable and causing all kinds of problems.

I switched over to welding cable, available at almost all Ace hardware stores by the foot.

we use the thick stranded (and hard sheilded ) stuff for just that reason.

I have not seen it "super cheap" anywhere........especially what you would consider super cheap

If I'm not mistaken it is over $5/ft

edit: that was for the 0 gauge
