Stop in for a cup of coffee

Sounds right. I'm pretty sure the Ram350 I drove was an '87 and it had an ammeter. dumper and plow were both wired to the battery. At the time didn't understand why so much current would flow through it when the raising the bed.

'85 was the last year for AMC's Grand Wagoneers to have ammeters.
'86 was the first year of a redesined wiring system. Power distribution began at the starter solenoid. Lots of fusible links.

All this talk of wiring woes, has me thinking I need to implement a fuse on my 66. Everything inside the car, runs off fusable link. The Amplifiers in the trunk have a 100 Amp fuse. The headlight relays are fused, BUT the line from the ALT to the batt is not. I have a 100 AMP Alt. Modified wiring is used. No Amp gauge.
