i don't see why 4 gauge wouldn't work. i've never done a battery relocation, but as long as your not running a bunch of **** from it, i don't see why you would need huge stuff.

Uh..... what?

LOL.... 4 gauge will be fine, just properly mount everything, and be sure to use rubber grommets wherever the wire passes through a hole....

Get a high quality wire, one whose internal core is fat, not one that says it's 4awg and the internal core is like 8 awg because the sheath is so thick.
