If you're going to open the mechbox...and while it's all apart to rewire, it's a great time to do it...you might as well solder on complete new wire vs. splicing in bits and pieces. If you're all setup...it take about 5min to run in new wiring...and then it's all pretty instead of hacked together.
The motor connectors are .110", get them at Canadian Tire in the automotive section. (I think it's .110"...it's the smallest ones with a red plastic case...just cut the casing off with a knife).
18AWG fits nicely, 16AWG will fit but if the shielding is thick it might be a tight squeeze.
You can run the wires out the front and around to the back...but that's not the "right" way to do it...
Rerouting them is very simple (google images until you find a good pic) and they come out nice and neat right at the rear.
If you're going to install a crane stock you might want a hand from someone who's done it before. Basically you have to ensure that you have enough room in between the stock tube and the receiver stud to fit the wires and you'll want the wires to end just past the end of the stock tube. You may be required to do some permanent modifications (i.e. cutting/grinding) to your receiver.
Hope that helps,
