Alternator upgrade on an 80 (1 Viewer)

[RFB]

Ok I got the kit from another memeber to allow me to install the 150amp sequoia alternaotr, well I got the toyota alternator(remanned) and the kit, what issues am I opening myself up to after this is installed if any. Im yanking the IBS dual battery setup and replacing with the national luna setup and I run two odyssey extremes 1500s and a bussman fuse block

Nothing. Drive fast and take chances.

What’s wrong with the IBS system? I ran it for years with no issues.

Do you have to update the fusible link? I met someone that did the same mod and talking about upgrading the fusible link to something to handle the higher amps

I installed the RBM and it died/failed on my 27 day trip wreaking havoc on my electronics, culd fix it, but went with National luna thanks Beno

You can run a larger wire and fuse/link. I ran a 2 AWG wire and 175 amp ANL fuse when I installed the 150 A alternator with Bill's bracket and small pulley.

I ran the stock wiring initially and it worked fine, but I don't have dual batteries...
