ALL the Double-Zero. High Power Sound System (16) 2/0 power & ground cables stripped, crimped & ran

visit: www.stevemeaded... - Join our fun, friendly and knowledgeable community today!
Last January while i was in Vegas for CES, someone knocked my beloved hoe off of her life support. Usually she is good for about 4-5 days tops when not hooked up to the wall. I have 11 year old batteries under the bottom...and they have for sure taken abuse but as long as they were on their intellicharger by the end of the evening they did fine. This time though, i came home to about 2 volts. She has been sitting ever since. The shop is a VERY busy place so it is easy to ignore it and let it collect dust. But i couldn't take it anymore! Join me on this journey to revive my Hoe! The ORIGINAL hoe! The hoe that made you want a hoe for yourself!
Todays video more BORING wire running...except this time much bigger! About 200' of Skyhigh Car Audio 2/0 and also some 1/0 and 4 ga wiring ran...it all needed to be stripped and crimped. Watch the video to see how FAST i did it :)

thanks for watching the premier with me! I went live today on my instagram channel and showed this stuff off...don't miss my early streams with lots of copyright music in the background (LOL), cursing, and many tiny squares with photo's in them that depict my daily life.

[@sacramentomusic3152]

meade916 I wanna get my stuff done one day when I get my bag right 😂💯

[@dreednlb]

4:56 What happened...it goes black for a couple seconds. We didn't hear what the mod is.

[@michaellowther8649]

That shit is mint dude!!👌🏼👌🏼cant wait to see it done!!!

[@onlythebest4990]

Since the introduction of the CNC machines perfection has definitely been elevated.

[@kenmcdonald1985]

That stripper was crazy. When he put it on the wire I felt like a kid seeing something new. That blew my mind!

4:53 really......... really lmaooooo. We want to know

[@Jugg215]

The people that disliked this video got their mobile system done at Best Buy

[@thatguy10145]

I didn’t dislike but I got mine from Walmart lmao

[@droppinghertz9922]

Or their Still just pist because they lost their jobs @ Circuit city & No one else will let them install car audio anywhere cause they Suckkk...

[@russellredblackwolfproctor9961]

Lol I do mine myself no best buy or anybody else

[@kimpatricksstorhagen185]

its because they cant afford it😂

[@RatchetTrashPanda]

Or the audio express $1 install

[@crasheddougie1069]

That wire stripper is badass. Never seen that before

[@70dustpan]

I watched this Tahoe wayyyyy back in 2008-2009 in high school and its what got me super interested in bass......super cool to see the whole process of it being rebuilt again.....super rad cant wait to see it revamped fully and banging

[@slowridin4988]

Back at his home garage ...the days man

[@JohnDoe-mx1sq]

4:56 is that an error? Or top secret? That thing is so cool!

[@hifiman4562]

Anyone remember those days using a cig lighter on heat shrink?

[@johnnywood8082]

Shit I did it the other day

[@mattwhite7014]

14:20 - This man has ALL the cool toys and tools!

[@johnnywood8082]

That last shot with all the wires zip tied and routed neatly was amazing! The whole under hood is a work of art.

[@meade916]

thanks Johnny!

[@brax0210]

Really happy to see this ride getting some love reminds me of a happier time in my life when I first found this channel over 10 yrs ago

[@austinmathis95]

Im gonna have to say it that heat gun is the real MVP. Im loving all of this content with the new and improved tahoe.

[@shawntolino602]

Dope video!!!! Crazy how I’ve been watching the build ever since the Tahoe was tan and when u used to work out of ur own garage. Good shit bro.

[@danielhillwick8430]

Love the clean install. In some of my past big installs I ran the cable inside the frame of the vehicle hidden safely from the harsh elements. All truck and SUV frames are a C or box designed. The C style are easy to close up with light guage sheet metal. I miss working in the car audio industry full time. Only a hobby now.

[@mattclark2641]

That new Milwaukee set🤩

[@nickfountain8420]

Judging by the High Tension Power Lines your running into that Electrical Substation, this is clearly going to be an SQ build! Holy shit on those power and ground wires.

[@VochoTalacha]

I just wonder how difficult would it be to change the spark plugs that sit behind all that stuff lol I'm not trying to be negative towards this amazing build in any way. It's just a genuine question that popped in my head.

[@rw1355]

Don’t spill brake fluid

[@brianparker9924]

I've used that crimp tool on much bigger wire. It is a time saver and a limb saver. It is quickly becoming an electrical industry standard. Even though its expensive as hell.

[@donmige81]

$1000+ for a cable crimper is more the. The average bass head can afford, it must be nice though!

[@brianparker9924]

@@donmige81 I'm sure he uses it every day. defiantly worth it. Terminated high voltage panels, that thing has saved me hours. Your right though about average bass head affording in tboough.

[@streetzsportz1760]

For it to be just a wiring video I found in very interesting, people never really get to see what goes into these vehicles that we like/love so much.......great work!

[@antro_oner]

Look at those great tools.. I'm doing mine on the floor of my garage with a body hammer and punch. Nice work Steve!

[@hshj04]

Love seeing the Tohoe being revived! That Milwaukee crimper does some work!

[@318bassin9]

Been watching your channel for years since I was still experimenting with bass in my parents and cousins rides 10 years ago to now being a full blown basshead

[@ericwatson9771]

What a good install. Thanks for filming and showing us all how to properly do things. Keep it up Steve !

[@rpatrick2]

Someday there is just going to be a 4 inch diameter copper bus bar from the front to the back.

[@kswis]

Hundreds of pound of dope ass wire. Thats sexy alone. 8 runs may be over kill but it hella better than not enough. Keep em coming bro

[@slow_rednline4874]

Absolutely amazing work . True inspriration in the car game . No corners cut..👍🏾🤘🏾

[@darkonecoming]

Your installation skills are so damn good. Keep it up.

[@hayzeproductions7093]

Dang! Its been a little while since i been on Steves channel, but im noticing hes got some new tools to get the jobs done a heck of a lot faster!

[@j.a.r.family2576]

Your quality can't be touched and your humility and respect can't be measured. Good job big bro!!!!

[@jcarreon2288]

love seeing this beast back in action

[@chunk386]

Steve got all the toys for the job. I work hard for what i got so i get it. Hard work pays off. But damn one day i hope to have a lot of the toys too someday.

[@willmatic84]

😎🙌🏽 man this is gonna be more powerful than ever im glad your bring the Tahoe back to life this tahoe is a legend in your channel and also what brong me to your channel in the 1st place 👌🏼 cant wait

[@ccooper04]

We use a crimper like that on locomotive traction motor leads. Both ac and dc motors. Dc motors the copper core has to be at least the diameter of a quarter or larger. All I know is it sucked pulling 12 runs about 80ft long to re wire the motors

[@jn6788]

Been waiting days for this video, the lift is the key! This new set up is 🔥, all Steve's stuff is quality

[@2vgod460]

Industry leader in tools!! I my self own every singe tool they make, I don’t have that wire stripper one, but I have the pipe tools

[@akadoublea8975]

Siiiiiiick! Never knew Milwaukee tools made stuff like that. Now I know what to save up for. 🙂

[@matthewburgess9221]

I absolutely love your wiring and box building videos.

[@mikethatguy27]

Meade is always working.. the type of guy I look up to! 💯✌️🙌

[@angstyxxo1232]

Workin hard too

[@marksapollo]

Steve: runs more cables in his car for his audio then most have in their entire house to four high power alternators. Also Steve: these double adapter terminals are a bit overkill.....

[@077jramo]

A true artist in car audio, love your work

“Doc Brown, this is Steve. I’ve found a way to generate the 1.21 gigs watts.”

[@M0N5T3R666]

watching you for years and you are my favorite, i admire the fact you give away ideas, i never knew you could use the car frame like that . thanks

[@douglasRbrown]

DAMN!!! Way better than fighting with a box cutter... I smell a sponsor! LOL HVAC has gotten in to using more crimp fittings for the line sets. 1500 to 2000+ for a starter kit so I still use a torch and silver! Thanks for posting

[@savagethegod941]

This man has a tool for everything 😱

[@poreric1]

For real 😂

[@gardyfaustin8707]

Me too . Just one tool tho

[@RAMON20IES]

Cable management at it’s finest! 😧 Great Job!! Keep up the good work!

[@Mrcoldfront]

Wassup Steve. Hope everyone is having a great day

[@PHUSII]

Well good bye voltage drop! That power plant will be enough until the world ends LOL

[@nitronixasd]

Just out of curiosity, how much does your car weigh? Thats some serious cabling there and with that comes weight. Proper job tho! Very good!

[@eddie6pez]

I was totally thinking the same thing!!! Not to bash Steve but I’m genuinely curious

[@2v_media]

It adds a hefty bit of weight. I know I had 3 runs of 1/0 and they were roughly 10lbs I believe. 2/0 has to be quite a bit heavier there’s probably 50+lbs of wiring.

[@ShooterMcveach]

@@2v_media try more like 400lbs.

[@dwaynewalton9054]

That thing is going to beat louder and harder with all that new power wire and juice flowing hell yeah keep up the great work

[@joey4872]

Wow. Serious wire run. I love it. No lack in ground there. Maybe just one more. 😆 Can't wait to watch the battery wire up.

[@jizmak55]

Love watching the build Steve, but I gotta be honest, I love reading your reply’s in the comments more haha. Keep it up man!

[@alphadogx83]

Bro I’ve done all my systems grounds just like the way your talking about ! I even ran a ground all the way to the back years later to see if it made any difference and NO it didn’t make the less difference ! So I’ll keep using my frame as my main ground to my batteries and from the alt to the frame !

[@meade916]

the frame is for sure the best place to run grounds. Shit, if they had two frames i would run the positive on the other side haha!

[@alphadogx83]

🤣😂 hell yea I heard that !!

[@fxgamer-11yt]

the bass is going to be much louder steve this is going to have some thump to it to bro keep up the work been here since the my eye popped out video and been subs since man i love all your videos bro good work as allways

[@MattK2015]

So much force that the cables cold welded to the lug thats amazing

[@gardyfaustin8707]

And here i am using my teeth to strip 0 gauge wires

[@quinton7854]

Steve is telling us he is sponsored by Milwaukee lol

[@djdradp8baller2]

thats what IM saying! lol

[@meade916]

how am i saying that when i paid FULL MSRP for everything and they have no idea i even exist? BZZZZZZ, WRONG. Try again. SMH

[@meade916]

@@djdradp8baller2 not everyone who has a couple nice tools is sponsored and gets everything for free. Although with almost 800,000 subscribers i deserve it for the exposure i give them. But you guys are fucking hilarious though ill give you that. Remember these 2 words. FULL MSRP. Not even a coupon. Nothing.

[@ogdeathstar7443]

I'm really surprised meade doesnt have millions of subscribers.

[@wolfguardian8312]

I GUESS THE FIRST QUESTION IS...WHAT THE HELL IS HE DOING?

[@JamesBrown-rm2rd]

go to the electrical supply house and order a cable tray, use some standoff screws and hook your positive wires on top strap with cable ties, then run the grounds the same way underneath and cable tie them the same way nice and neat.

[@timbowman8150]

What can I say.... Man Steve, u killed that! U knocked that right out of tha park, Grand Slam‼️ 🎯 FrFr
