to be honest mate, you need to do all 3...not just upgrade the wires and battery - as whats the point in getting a bigger battery, if you cant charge it up quickly :boggle: | |

i don't think there's any point on upgrading the alternator until you've done the battery mate. I might be way off base but your current battery can only charge up so quickly and to a certain degree, a new alternator won't serve any purpose other than to charge it up faster, ie when you're moving when you don't really need it. | |

im just gonna upgrade the battery to a diesel battery. Don't think the alternator is as important. | |
