[QUOTE="Mommy Wagon, post: 7991112, member: 641740"] Right now, even with a factory alternator you are trying to fill a thirsty battery by pouring from a pitcher into a straw. The only way to do this properly is make sure the straw is big enough to work with the thirst (or system load) you are presenting. No factory charging system ANYWHERE is meant to keep up with the demands you are placing on it. Step 1. Big 3 with 0 ga. (4 ga. at minimum) Step 2. Replace battery with a unit more suited to your needs Step 3. Replace alternator with 250-300 amp unit (175-225 at idle) If you cannot build a Big 3 Kit for yourself, vendors and members here can. Then all you need to do is open the package and install. [/QUOTE]
