Bought a alternator brand new from nappa 4 months ago.I drive a c/k pickup that is reg cab,2wd,short bed.The alternator I got was for the same truck,only 4wd with a plow set up and a extra battery.Just wondering if this will supply enough juice so at night my lights wont dim?I am running two amps that have 30A fuses each.

Yep, you will have no problems. Just remember to set your gains properly and don't ask for more than your amp can provide.
