Do I need a scond battery?
I have a 5" tach, fogs, stereo system(subs,amp) and soon to install a triple pillar. Do you think I will need another battery,or maybe a stronger altenator? I have no problems yet, but I still need to install the triple pillar. I don't want to over load anything. What precautions should I be aware of?

A second battery is not needed. If you are increasing the electrical load with power hungry accessories you may want to upgrade the alt. If it is a 65 amp unit a 105 amp would not be a bad idea though really not a neccessity. Driving conditions are really the issue. If you spend all your driving with all the accessories on upgrade if you are not at 105. Otherwise leave well enough alone and upgrade if you have to replace the alt.
