My truck on speed.
Well, Im back on the road again today with a spanky new alternater. Got a newer GM 90+ amp one. First thing I noticed driving it is that all the guages are brighter, and the blickers blink twice as fast. After driving it for years with the old 37 amp alternater the truck looks like its on drugs!

Re: My truck on speed.
better check the output on that new one also - just in case !!! a friend upgraded to a 100 amp on a jeep for fast charge cause of the winch. He thought it was great 2 ,then a week later his battery blew. Turns out the alt was putting out 16 + all the time MAX CHARGE AHHHHHHHHHHH.
