your factory battery cable is 4ga. IF you mean the alternator wire, you can buy bulk 4ga wire at a hardware store and re-wire it yourself, but unless your alternator is 140a or higher, 4ga wire is overkill

Hardware store wire is solid core=NO good for automotive use. You will need a braded wire for flexability. You can get the proper wire at most auto parts stores. Good Luck.
