just go down to any parts store and buy any of those wire stripper/connecter combos for $12 and you should have everything you need. Do you have ring connectors for the 4 AWG wire? Those took a little searching. After that just check the routing of the wire to make sure you have enough. I just got done with mine this weekend and major improvement over stock alt.

GOOD LUCK

i plan to just buy a power wire with fuse from pa performance....but i see they also offer the spade connector to buy...just thought since they offer it seperately then im must need it?
