[QUOTE="Tomtom9401, post: 5329482, member: 600768"] Hey guys im trying to upgrade my electrical on my truck so i can be ready if i want to add some more subs or accessories. I have a few questions. I will i guess be doing the big 3 upgrade with 4 or 0 gauge wire. Just to clarify i will not be moving any of my stock wires like going to the alternator and battery right? I am just adding a bigger run of wire that connects the 2 right? Also, right now i have 1 15" AQSD2.5 and my lights kind of dim, hopefully the big 3 will get rid of that. But i want to go ahead and get either a high output alternator or dual alternators. My question is which would be better and why? Since i all ready have the dual battery trays i guess i will be adding dual batteries. What all will i need to do the dual battery install in a 97 GMC k1500 extended cab 5.7l. Im sure i have seen a thread some where but i cant find it. Anyone got the link? I am also looking for links to either the high-output alternator or dual alternator kits. Just want some opinions since i will most likely be running either the hi-out alternator or dual alternators for awhile w/o really needing them i dont want to burn up anything ya know.
