The stock alternator barely keeps up with the stock components so I upgraded to a GM style. What I did was went to PepBoys and tell them you need an alternator for an 85 Chevy suburban with the biggest engine they have a listing for and every option possible(4x4,A/C,power windows ect.) This will make it easier for you to get the higher 100amp instead of the 60amp. The reason I went this route was because of the lifetime warranty and it still only cost $70.00. Another nice thing with using this alternator is the wires are almost direct replacement after you change the plug.
ALTERNATOR Part #7-69035-20436
Now I have no problems running night ops with 2 100watt lights and sometimes a winch.
