[QUOTE="H.O. Alternator, post: 354544, member: 551693"] What voltage are you running to "bounce"? Some hydralic pumps run off of 20+ volts. If this is what you are doing, then you will need the same type of batteries and charging system (alternator). If this is the case, then yes, run one alt for your 12V system, then run the 2nd alt to the higher voltage charging system. If you are using air bags that also run off of 12 volts (12-14.8v) then I would tie the outputs of the 2 12 volt alternators together. You will also have multiple 12 volt batteries, which should be paralleled together. SO, all batteries and alternators will be paralleled together. [/QUOTE]
