[QUOTE="zbone1, post: 5923948, member: 608723"] alright thanks for the help, imma try to retighten the belt a little bit and see if that helps, I went to a local autoparts store and they tested the alternator at idle and it showed up on their amp test as producing under 30 amps at idle... not satisfied at all, exspecially when you spent 350$ on the alternator itself... will be contacting them soon to see what to do, I did believe I did "the big 3" correctly, I left the original wiring and added the 2 gauge wiring, I really dont know what else to do... raining at the moment, only thing I can think that could be wrong is the belt I did hear some squeeling the first time it came out with the new alternator but now its not squeeling at all and the belt is still spinning the over drive pulley, you think if I use my stock pulley and put it on the new alternator it might help?
