[QUOTE="Wick3D, post: 8499089, member: 669753"] 1st.. I put a new 1 awg wire neg. terminal to frame the other day and that helped a bunch, today I am going to slap a 1 awg power wire from alt to battery. I keep reading that you need a fuse inline though.. is this true? If so how big of a risk is it to not? 2nd.. I want to upgrade my battery power, but I am a cheap M.F.. A few idea's I had(Don't hate just let me know if there's a better cheap solution or why it's a bad idea).. A.) Go to junk yard, find a f350 battery and replace it with my stock battery... B.) Find another battery with similar ratings as mine and stick em side by side on the battery tray(I hear if the batteries are too different you get problems tho [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] ) C.) Stick a sealed tractor/marine battery(Deep Cycle) in trunk. What issues do you get putting a weaker battery in parallel? D.) Idea you have that's superior, that doesn't involve 200$ I know I know, get a yellow top.. I repeat.. I am a cheap MF. [/QUOTE]
