Thanks J.O. But that's not my intention to Buy a wiring harness. I want to do
this From scratch and replace each wire separate. I know I read someplace
about this but can't seem to find the info any more. I do remember that a 6
volt system puts out more Amps than a 12 and that your wires need to be a
larger Gage to allow for that extra Amperage so as not to over heat the wires.
This is for the lights and any other thing running off the system. I just
can't remember the minimum Gage they said should be used. I will as I build
this sleeve the wires that run together.

  HI everyone, I'm going to rewire my 46 3/4 ton  and want to know the Gage
of
  wire I should use? It's still a 6 volt system and I do Know that it needs
to
  be a larger Gage wire than needed for 12 volt. Also that it should be multi
  strand but then smaller or larger strands. Any help would be Appreciated.
                                                                       Thanks

  Rob
