[QUOTE="Jacob Dryer, post: 934485, member: 63151"] It is just a nut tightened on a bolt like you described.. There is just a stock ring connector and I stacked mine on top. As far as two fuses.. the reason for that is if the wiring gets damaged. Right now you are going to continue to throw sparks because both sides won't be disconnected from power. In other words this is a fire hazard. It's a good idea to have two fuses on the battery to alt wiring too.. Even if you use an isolator you are still running them in parallel, and the reason for the negative is I read that in large systems it can make a difference because copper is a better conductor than steel or whatever the chassis is made from. And in some cases you don't get a very good ground at the rear of the chassis because of all the unibody construction crap that is going on now (wouldn't be an issue with ST) [/QUOTE]
