Gotta protect the cut end somehow, prevent short circuits. I tend to use tape.

Can use knife if you want it to be tedious and annoying. Use a very sharp knife, that helps. There's really nothing quite like using a good quality stripper though.

[shootermcgavin003]

If wire is not stripped wont short circuit

If the end is cut then it can, it's just somewhat unlikely.

Those crimper/strippers can vary from absolute shit to somewhat tolerable. Generally the ones with the stripper on the other side of the hinge are better strippers and tolerable crimpers.

Also you won't find any of those in Walmart, those were marketplace bullshit, as if we want to buy from the same sellers on Walmart that we find on Amazon and eBay...

[Cez★]

fak

didnt see it was from other fgts

what u mean on other side of hinge?

[theholycow]

Always crap:
Handle----strippers---hinge---crimper

Sometimes good:
Handle---hinge-strippers&crimper

Usually good:
Handle---crimper---hinge---strippers

This one looks good:

This one looks like a decent stripper but lame crimper:

Awesome crimper, no stripper:

Forgot you're soldering so crimper doesn't matter.

if you already have a radio then adding a system is nothing:

1. power wire from battery to amp
2. ground from amp to body
3. RCA cables from amp to radio
4. power wire from amp to radio
5. speaker wire from amp to subs

done.

the "hardest" part of installing subs is taking apart some interior to hide wires and getting the power through the firewall.. which isn't even hard, just takes a little while sometimes.

and cao, word on buying spensive shit for one job my dad may have one somewhere in one of the many toolboxes he has

pops has a pair like that, so nice

---------- Post added at 07:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 AM ----------

if he has tools then he probably has a wire stripper in there somewhere, maybe even the soldering iron. ask him before you spend money since you probably won't need then again any time soon lol

[Cez★]

his soldering iron probably wont work, if he has one. i doubt it. never seen him fuck with anything electrical



and fuckin excalibur woke me up at 4 fuckin am hacking up a goddamn hairball. asshole

can ax him when he home. really doubt it tho. might have crimpers and probably stripper

[JayBo]

I have these. Used them for 6+ years w no problems. I just use the cutting part to strip wires. but I've learned a shortcut since I strip a billion wires a day it seems. never have used a pair of actual strippers.

[JayBo]

went through 5 sets of Klein crimpers one year.

---------- Post added at 11:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 AM ----------
