are you really wondering why the wires that are in your fender well have been chewed up by your tire? uhh you just lowered your car. that is why.

@poorsupra i know why it chewed up i was just wondering if their is wires on that harness that controls the alternator..im gonna check it out later when it gets lil cooler outside and is their a easy way of relocating the harness??

Yes it is a lil to hot but easiest way is to unplug the connectors and route it through inside of engine bay in car without cutting. If I find pics of my car I'll post there's a link floating around here

maybe its just me but relocating the harness doesnt look as easy as people say.

I think im going to rivet in or bolt some sheet metal over the harness instead of relocating it, i dont see how the tire will be able to penetrate that.

Pulling out plugs, cutting wires, relocating this and that ...no thanks.

I was thinking the same thing just put sheet metal but then i didnt wanna sound like an idiot but that sounds better then cutting it the unplugg sounds a lil easier tho

Easier to unplug it, fixed exposed wires at.different places to avoid a bunch of crap all together, then pull it tight, the run back the engine compartment .. if you dont pull it tight, it might not fit back to the plug ins. just a thought.
