Well I took the quick connect out and just installed a regular battery terminal. Will see if it helps with the lights.
If this doesn't fix it then a new 145 amp alternator will be bought for it.
While I was messing with it today I got to thinking why not turn the battery box upside down and cut out the bottom of the box for the terminal's to come through it and make it a little nicer on the eyes... what do you think?
The reason for the covers and tie downs is our truck club has a auto cross every year and the battery has to be secured with no metal showing.
