I heard good things about rugged rocks.
One of the engineering weaknesses of our rides is how low the alternator sits and that it will get mauled a bit by the dirty waters of a water crossing.
I also heard the rugged rocks is resilient on this front.
Have not tried the product myself though , this is all hearsay. :)

Now, I sit at close to 15 Volts at idle and around 15.2 volts when driving.
Stockers usually output around 14.2. Make sure your upgrade isn't going above 15.5, that's the area where the CANbus will begin to say, "Ouch!"
