Ok, ran into my first problem....Installed a new 75 amp alternator, and immediately after reconnecting batteries I got fizzling and smoke in the wires...

I'm assuming something grounded out. Removed alternator got it tested, its good....Battery checks out. Reinstalled alternator, truck still starts, but I'm not kicking the voltage to the battery, the alternator is still putting out good juice.

My question....can I just install a cable from the alternator to the battery + terminal?IMG_4558.jpg
