These 3 are power ins(interconnected), we use 1 as an in from the breaker, and 1 as an out to the other fuse box

We did ground everything back to the mini fuse box, but as you guys say, we may use the stud.

I really dont want to waste a pound on something useless like that distro box unless it is absolutely needed, especially because our Stinger MAXI fuse box is rated for up to 4 awg wire.
Please reread Al's post, the distribution block and ground stud are required for this years robots circuit. If they werent going to help in the long run they wouldnt be required.
