Well the alternator sounds good. Not sure how your truck is set up but on mine I have 2 wires coming from the main harness (near the horn/ drivers side headlight) to the alternator. On of the wires plugs into a male spade connector and the other has a ring that goes to the back of the alternator. From the battery there is a wire that connects to the other male spade connector, and a large zero gauge cable that goes to the bolt in the back. The large wire is what feeds the current from the alt to the battery.
