    Summit UDP's..

    Alright..so my grandma borrowed my car today, which happens ONCE in a great while..but at any rate, she took the car for the day..Well, around lunch she dropped it off..So i get in it to go cash my check and grab some food, and turns out, MY BATTERY is DEAD..I was like wtf?...

    So I call her, she said she didnt leave any lights on or anything..I'm beginning to think it's the damn pullies..anyone have problems with this? I don't even have a system, jus the stock Mach system..It's beginning to really piss me off, and I'm wondering if these garbage ass pullies are really worth it..


    your .02?

    I've went through 2 batteries, one of which was prorated so i didn't really care but..thats rediculous..i only paid about 100 bucks for them new, go figure why they're trash.

    The alt pulley spins too fast and wont charge it back up. It happens almost all the time.

    I had pulleys on my 01 for over a year and never once had a charging issue. You might want to look into other possible problems first.

    +1 with this and mine sits in the garage most of the winter... not on a charge or anything. never had a problem. I got Steeda, but I don't really see where the brand would cause a problem. I think they're all the same sizes.
