DON’T RUIN YOUR NEW TRANSMISSION! AUX COOLER-PROPER GROUNDING-ALTERNATOR UPGRADE‼️
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 мар 2024
- Welcome back and thank you for tuning in! The dually is back and almost ready to rip up the dirt for sled pulling season. First we needed to address proper wiring of our new aux trans cooler. Then we needed to make sure we are properly grounding all components. Lastly with the additional electrical load, and future e fans, we give the truck a nice alternator upgrade.
Lastly, TEST DRIVE!

I want that backrack so bad.
Stock alternator does suck! I went with a Bosch 140A and a smaller pulley. Really helped out at idle for my excursion. I was hitting 12.8-12.9v at idle with everything on. Now it’s 13.8-14.2V all day everyday.
Gonna have to do this as well!
Thanks for the tutorial on grounding cables.👍🏻
Very nice
She runs good son 👍 I like it.
Did you have your own fuel lines made to mount your reg. return by the brake res? Mine is on the alternator and I don’t really like it there.
Looks like you have an upgraded filming location 😉
The lighting seems better! Haha
That truck sounds AWESOME! Would you please make a video that goes over your transmission build?

I'm getting ready to upgrade my alternator what's the biggest to go up to without having to change the stock wires
Part of the issue with the charging/power system is not large enough gauge wire. That’s why you see I added 2 grounds and a power off the alternator.
What is really lacking is higher amperage from the alternator at lower rpms. This takes many miles to see problems. But this is why FICMs power board fails. So if you are going to upgrade your alternator it’s best to go all out and get a 180+ alternator and upgrade your wiring. In this video I barely scratched the surface, ideally you would upgrade to larger factory power and ground cables. 1/0 factory upgrade to 2/0, especially the power wire that connects both batteries and feeds the starter, this would also require these additional grounds and upgrading factory grounds to 2/0.
The best one to go with is a denso large case hairpin style unit. It will do well over twice the idle output of this upgrade alternator in the video when hot, and 380+ amps continuously if/when needed. 12 large diodes in an actual finned heatsink for robust output while retaining long term reliability. Less mechanical input power to generate electrical power, runs cooler, more power and MUCH more reliable then these reworked 6g alternators that make tremendous heat, and cause rectifier and regulator failures.
This upgrade will fail sooner than later likely, and when it does, I'll send Cody one of mine to test. I've built my own for both my 7.3 and 6.0, my scion TC and many others for car audio. As a previous certified Ford diesel tech, these 3g and 6g alternators have always been problematic, and it's because of its base design. Small weak 8 diode rectifiers and s wind stators that run hot, and don't make much power. When modded to make more power in a "delta configuration" they make tons more heat, sacrificing reliability. Ask how I know. That's how I got into building these for myself and others. Here's a video from my page showing what's inside, and why they work better. A small case hairpin would still run circles around this 6g large case upgrade unit.
Do they work for the average user that doesn't know any better? Absolutely. When you know and experience a true upgrade, you'll understand why I took the time to write out this comment in such detail. Have a look for yourself. If you're handy, you can EASILY build one yourself. Around $350 in parts, and a few hours of build time, and your set for 10+ years of stout current that'll hold voltage no matter what you throw at it, even at idle.
Not knocking the upgrade Cody! It'll do for now, when your ready for the end all when this one fails, holler and I'll send ya one!

To answer your question about the largest you can go without upgrading wires...
I wouldn't go above 180A, in which a small case hairpin will still be a substantial upgrade from this ancient 6g unit. Around 130 amps at idle, and 160-180 max output. For 90+% of average vehicles that don't require tremendous output for ultra heavy electrical draws, a small case is a great upgrade. More reliable, more efficient, cleaner output, less heat, more power. There's really no downside other than purchase price and install. When it's finally failed, they are easily rebuildable and upgradable.
Sorry for not answering the question in the first three paragraphs.. 😂
Can you do a Video on your VGT switch?

@@LeftLaneDiesels Thank you!
is the vgt brake just tuning?
No it’s in the BD tap shifter. Check out that video in the “Dually” playlist!
@@LeftLaneDiesels will do man love your content. Picked up an 07 with 19,400 miles last summer I'm taking lots of notes going through all your stuff
