Shielded cable replacement - *Badlands Winch*

[SadRobot]

I need to replace the shielded positive cable that comes out of the Badlands Apex winch. It suffered some damage inside the engine bay. My google searching has failed me and I can't seem to be able to find just this cable. Anyone know where I can buy this? Or a equivalent cable?

Isn't it just a 2g cable with shielding over it?

Googling 2g cable makes me think it is so I'll look into buying that and some replacement shielding. Thanks!

Here’s a pre-made power cable from Warn. Probably use the part number to find it cheaper. eBay?

That will work, I have also used this before and it worked fine. I also purchased high temp cable protector from them.

I use welding cable for all my auto needs.

I built a set for a client for winches and batteries in his Jeep, he had a dual battery setup and a winch.

I use ONLY solid copper or brass connectors that are lead/zinc plated

You want to use welding cable, its a finer strand that Auto grade so it adapts easier to twists and turns of threading it the grills and engine bay. It also carries far more amps for a gauge of cable.

Auto-grade cable goes bad in about 5 years or even less if you live near the coasts.

It is expensive but worth it I assure you. The set below I built for about $120... I strongly recommend if you do a LOT of off road then I switch to welding grade and solid copper/brass connections.

I moved my Badlands control box off the top of the winch. Read several write-ups and used this cable kit from Harbor freight. It’ll be more cables than you need, but seems readily available. https://www.harborfreight.com/autom...bles/6-ft-2-awg-inverter-cable-set-63747.html

Thanks! Now I just need to work up the motivation to do some re-wiring.
