I did this last year on my '97 TJ using the 2 guage cables, and ran into the same issues you did. The most challenging issue was where to locate the fuse holder. I contoured one surface of a block of treated and painted wood to the inner fender where I bolted it down using existing holes, then mounted the fuse holder to the flat surface on the block of wood using outdoor wood screws. I don't normally bolt blocks of wood to my Jeep, but I haven't the resources to fabricate something out of metal. Anyway, so far so good. While I was at it, I turned my battery around so that the postive side was away from the fender, just in case the battery shifted or the fender got crunched. Not a whole lot of clearance between battery and fender. Thanks for making and sharing another excellent video with us!

The extra wire you cut away from the starter cable, did you just discard it or is it needed? Great video, I just got these cables and will be doing the upgrade soon.

Did you use the battery negative to fender cable?

No, for two reasons. It's used to eliminate RF interference in radios etc. I don't have a radio so non issue for me. The other reason is I will be building high line fenders soon.

So you connect the winch directly to the battery? I wasn’t sure if you attached positive to the fuse…

Yes winch directly to the battery. The fuse is between the alternator and the battery.

Would you put back some wire loom/sheathing just like the factory cables to protect the cable jacket? Or if Jeepcables are durable enough for heat and rubbing resistance

They're fine the way they are. Factory wrapped in loom was to keep it all tight for smooth install. With that being said it wouldn't hurt to do it to keep everything tight.
