| Why would you tell him no SKip? If his amps are hooked to the Kinetics it's a good idea to install one to isolate the two banks. | |

| I did my big 3 but left the original wiring. so would i need to reroute all of that to the isolator. So i would have a wire from alt to isolator then from isolator to starter battery.. then would i run multiple runs of 0 gauge from my kinetiks to the isolator??? would they all fit??? I Bought a stinger 500A.. isolator | |

| If your stock battery is a lead acid battery then yes you need an isolator. if the stock battery is the same as the others, then an isolator isn't needed. | |

Ok.....than YES....use 4 isolators Simply asking you why you stated for him not to. If he has adequate power with the kinetics then an isolator from the stock battery is ideal. | |
