Hey Chris,

Ebay mate.

They are a little dear but take teh opportunity to buy a higher rated one. The factory one is 60amps maybe 70 in some models but you can buy a 90amp or even a 120amp from Patrolapart off ebay.

make sure when you are looking that is has the vacuum pump on the back (the big black thing) the ones off the TB42 and the later TD42s dont have it and you WILL NEED IT.

Expect to pay $300 to $500 for a new one with vac pump depending on the amp output. Is Big Is Good. If your runnig a heap of lights or a winch seriously think about the upgrade mate. spend the $
