no!

do not "upgrade" the fuse. the fuse is there to protect the wiring. if you add a bigger fuse, you could end up with a serious problem. the components that use that 80 amps will not draw more than that, so there is no need for a bigger fuse!!!

if you add something like a winch and lights directly to the battery/alternator, then you use the appropriate sized fuse (ex- 10 amp lights, put in a 15 amp fuse, 180 amp winch, 200 amp fuse, etc)

just watchin' out for the fellow yotas. i used to think that the fuse was in there to protect the device, but in school i learned that it's the wires that need protecting. if the wire is meant to handle 90 amperes max, and there's a 100 ampere fuse in there, the wire will burn up before the fuse blows. no bueno



(also, this comes from personal experience )

Nice I just bought my first yota it a 86 22r 4wd with 33s body in great shape it runs but has a oil leak on the timing cover I think. It came with a 94 trans in it not to crazy bout that and a good bit is Jerry rigged but I payed 1,000 for it,2 extra doors, a 15" kicker competition sub, 2amps, a ken wood cd player and an extra 86 trans Really anxious to start fixing all the rig up crap but don't know how to work on yotas
