I replaced the 160 amp alternator with a 270 amp alternator, changed the cables to 00 size cables, and the battery is an Odyssey battery. All because of the 15,000 lb winch.

I just replaced 4 deep cycle batteries on my motorhome. That $800. They only lasted 4 yrs.
Yeah, I didn’t google which odesssy you listed. What you mentioned above is why I brought up the deep cycle battery stuff, OP mentioned an optima yellow top, those afaik, are all deep cycle agm batteries, the red tops are regular duty agms.

I need to do what you did on your power wagon to my jk, sigh, just empty every pocket...
