I thought about that but 2-14s = the same currant capacity of 1-10 and I eliminated the drop from the 18 ga in the axle. I now have full voltage and perfectly equal V/As to each magnet. What's better than that? Craig
While the 2x14 ga might give the same current capacity it how ever does not compare to TWO 10 ga pairs.
On top of that is eliminating any and all unneeded splices and even wire path. My first TT had not one or two splices but THREE factory crimp splices IN THE WEATHER (all connections at the splices were shot). That was before it ever made it to the axle splices, seems the factory decided to use up the odds and ends laying on the floor with my TT.
The goal here is to IMPROVE reliability along with braking power.
Newer vehicles with IBC can and will rebel with bad wiring, often giving false disconnects.
My point however is if you went to the trouble of running new 14 ga wire just for one side it would not have been any more trouble just to run new 10 ga for both sides... Each to his own though...
