Hey Folks,
Just picked up an '82 J20 that's a stock rig. I'm in the process of modifying the charging circuit -- directing alternator current to starter solenoid and connecting the large 10 ga. wire that feeds the 'main' power supply to the interior to the start solenoid as well. I'd like to add circuit breakers to the new 6 gauge cable I'm going to run between the alt. power output and the starter solenoid, and I'd also like to add a breaker/fuse to the red 10 gauge wire that feeds the interior.
Anyone know the size/output of the stock J20 alternator for 1982? This is a non-A/C rig. Also, I'm looking for recommendations on fuse size for the main red 10 gauge feed to the interior. I'm thinking 40 amp would be appropriate for the red wire that feeds the interior, but not sure on the breaker size I should use for the new wire that will come off the alt. and connect to the starter solenoid.
