Big 3 upgrade

I've recently installed a stereo system and now need to do the big 3 wiring upgrade. Has anyone done this? Strange not one video online. Appreciate some help. Thanks

Your JS alternator will come with their wiring upgrade requirements.

The only thing detouring me from them is on their website it says I need a smaller serpentine belt. The pulley is smaller and if I leave the stock belt it'll slip. Like when I turn on the AC. I can't find the belt I would need. It's most likely my fault I can't find it. Lol. I think I'm just going to do the big 3 first n see how it goes. I appreciate you responding to both my posts. Thanks

Here's a trick:

Use this tool:

https://www.showmetheparts.com/continental/

You'll see that the part number for a 7th gen (any year, they're all the same) is 4070670

The 67 sequence is the belt length in inches. Play around/figure out what you need and then look up that part number. For example, I just googled 4070630 and got results for a Continental, 7 rib belt that is 63 inches in length, along with Goodyear, et all brands.

This model numbering methodology is used by most manufacturers that produce one item with multiple variants, only a digit or two, or whatever difference in model numbers, you just have to figure out their code.
