I'm having to replace my converter which i think is a 55 amp. Can i upgrade it to a 60 or 75 amp or do i need to stay with what it came with?

I would say that you can upgrade your converter size, particularly if it is a "Smart" microprocessor controlled, multi-stage converter/charger like the Progressive Dynamics 9200 series, with no ill effects. I wouldn't expect your existing battery to recharge any faster, though.

This advice is given based on my 35+ years experience as a medical electronics technician.

The only thing that would concern me with upgrading to a larger amperage would be the size of the wire between the converter and the battery. Be sure the wire size can handle the increase in amperage.
