cap vs battery upgrade

[ziggyt3 10+ year member]

ok it seems the general consensus is that caps really do nothing now i have read a few old post and it seem the two most commen reccomendations are get a kinetic battery

the other is to replace the batteries im thinking that i might replace the batteries cause not only do i have issue with the lights dimming while my system runs but if i have the plow on at the same time when the hydralic pump pulls there have been a few times when i thought it might stall from lack of juice to a point where the lights flicker and my banks diesel tuners pda resets overall im drawin som,e serious current and i already have 2 batteries and a 350 amp alt. i just spent 400 replacing the batteries at the dealer cause they said my old ones were toast but i still have the same issue

any help would be appreciated

right now this is my system and truck

02 gmc 250hd diesel loud as a mf

a jl e4300 440 wat speaker amp

There is also another thread started about this same topic and this has been covered several times.

Your hydraulic pump is gonna pull major power, no getting around that. If you are looking for any serious 'bump' while doing this, good luck.

I suggest doing the big 3 (would be surprised if its not done already, since it has a 350 amp alt) and turning the stereo down while adjusting the blade.
