Faulty battery, bad alternator, or both (photos)

Del,
Could a bad ballast resistor cause the high reading I am seeing?

I saw on mymopar that the top side of the ballast resistor should be 5ohms and the bottom side should be 1.2ohms.

I'll go double check now, but I don't remember mine spitting out those ohm readings...I think mine were lower on both accounts.
