Looks very neat well done, why the need for the extra amperage ????
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

I was wondering the same thing. TD.
My advice is: not to follow my advice.

Wanted the grunt for the rear battery in the main when using the rear winch warn 15000lb in the rear bar. Trying to protect against deep discharge.

Are you going to run the second alternator all the time, or are you gunna slip a belt on before you go offroad?

This was for saturday, but new rotors and pads all round, repacked cv's, new front wheel bearings, few other bits. Still need to change rotor button in dizzy, redo the timing and seal up the dizzy cap again. Plus add dielectric grease to the ignition lead boots, and finally bleed the brakes as I mistakenly let the master cylinder run empty (car was still on an angle from pulling the cv's). Fun and games.

Its hooked up all the time. I asked a similar question on this forum regards temp isolation, and the answers came back back along the lines that it will only charge to the state of discharge anyway, so over-charging is not an issue. I guess I am 'wearing out' two for the price of one, but in the end its simply a bearing/brush issue regards life, and this vehicle would not see 2000 klm/yr at most. There is no apprecaible extra noise when driving and can't detect any loss due to additional belt drive - if it was on the original 2.8TD it probably wouldn't get off the line!

Swapped over aux. fuel tank solenoid valve as it had finally died after 19 years of use - not bad service I reckon. Dirty awkward job in the heat, in the garage, at ground level, covered in diesel - oh the joys!
