I may be reading this wrong...but according to warn with Zero load, 80 amps.

Something tells me I am incorrect...I think you know more about the electrical stuff than I do though Abe. Help?

Something tells me I'm wrong too but Warn says themselves-
0# load - 80 amps.
2000# load- 200 amps.
4000# load- 285 amps.

Given that, a Boyle alternator ain't gonna do much either without a strong battery behind it for the reserve capacity.
A stock alternator outputs what, like 60 amps and the boyle maxes at 130?
Either way, you would be drawing off the battery reserve.

Well i think we can both agree that a good quality battery with a strong reserve is the first step a person needs to take. That, and upgrade cables and wiring.

abecedarian

agreed.

oh, and turn the CB and stereo off too, if you're using the winch.

and that plane was capable of mach 2.5 too... and they say the SR71 was mach 3+?

Do you suppose it had a 60 amp alternator?

abecedarian

not sure. I don't know the specs of the APU

I was waiting for this one, lmao.

DC you take this stuff on the road.

GA22RE

Thanks DC. I've been wondering about this for a while now. This looks like a great alternative to using a GM part in my Yota. I feel like I'll be cursing/cussing my truck by doing so.

Besides the rear springs... those prove themselves.
I knew as soon as I posted someone was going to mention using all of the components at the same time.
I guess it's a good thing I have a spare toyota alternator to juice out.

Of course if you're tired of crying about dead batteries, you could always get yourself a P.T.O.

The company is called pro starter and alternators, located in san diego ca

I think having a rebuilt toyota alternator is alot better because it will bolt in with no mods and the wiring is plug and play.

GA22RE

Asked bleeder about where he got his from. They sell on ebay too. Ordered mine on Wed. Should be here in a couple of days. Heard nothing but good things about this company.
