Just so I understand this
Jim......
The jumper you made up can be much shorter as it is only used to just switch wiring within the connector?
Exactly which wires are switched?
We have green, white, red, black wires from bottom to top on each side of the connector.
Green (on right) now goes (in your jumper connector) to what color (on left) and so on? I assume only two wires are switched....which two wires?
Great concept/solution
Jim 
Thanks
Oh....
Jim I do carry tools and a volt meter (drivers side box), Jumper Cables and Nylon Tow cable (passenger Side Box) behind seat. I also carry a Tow Bar Adapter located between passenger seat and door sill with Lug Nut Wrench.
I have never carried a spare alternator
