Have you done the big 3 yet?

If not, do it, and your dimming of lights should go away.

The big 3 meaning deep cycle battery HO alternator and higher gauge wire from the alt to the battery! This i am ok with upgrading all i need is a place i can get a HO alt! I have googled this and no luck so far

DC Power, Ohio Generator, Singer, Mechman...all make HO alt's. Several other companies around as well, but those are the ones that I can think of right now.

The big 3 - the battery ground to chassis wire, the chassis to engine block wire, and the alternator plus to battery plus wire.
