your just putting too much strain on your alternator, get a better alt, that should fix it (i think)

im taking out my passenger seat, battery is disconnected, going to unwire and take out the three amps, take out the 70+ lb box, then the platform so i can crimp 1 wire.

Almost as bad as those fegs that put those horns in their grills and roll down the street distorting the block....

Sounds like a loose serpentine belt. Try tightening it up, if that doesnt work, you probably need a new one.

If the belt is slipping, the alternator is working. You just need to replace and or or tighten the belt. Make sure all of the alternator bracket bolts are tight, and that the pulley is properly alligned with the crank pulley.
