Hello again,

I have purchased a higher amp output alternator for my trooper. It was recommended to upgrade the wire to 4 or 6 gauge. I have a couple of questions about it:

1) How necessary is this?

2) Where can I find a high amp fuse ( I saw a kit on eBay that had a 250amp fuse, but it was $50!!)

3) I looked at my wiring diagram and it looks like the alternator and battery white wires go to the fusible link box that is behind the passengers side headlight. Is fusible link what I should take out and put in the large fuse at?? It also looks like this is where the power goes out to the rest of the car. This just seems a little bit harder then I pictured.


Any help would be appreciated. I will be taking a long trip soon and need to work out any bugs now.
