\n\t\t\t\t\tAftermarket experts are beginning to find that short-lived batteries in fleets may be due to the wrong choice in the vehicle alternator.\r\n\r\nOver the years, the alternator\u2019s job has become more complex. Before, the typical heavy-duty vehicle could operate effectively with 40 amps of electrical current, which was enough to power the ignition, fuel and light systems. Fast forward to today and that threshold is rapidly...\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t <\/div> \n
