battery again was created by SUGAR DELTA
I think i'm gonna get a split charge system and put a 110Ah leasure battery in the boot.
Question,would the standard alternator be good enough for this task ?

Cheers folks :)

Yup, just use a split charge system of lesser rating. 60Ah max.

What's the reason you want a split charge system ?
If it's just for winching there's no real reason for it. Just parallel connect the batteries.

And go for 24V ?


All the challengetrucks I've seen have no need for fancy split charger. Two batteries in parallel connection works fine.
