Hey Reinaldo welcome back! You will absolutely need to upgrade you wiring to at least 6 gauge if you are planning on upgrading to a 55 amp converter like the Progressive Dynamics item # PD4655V. The 35 amp item # PD4635V would be the comparable replacement option if you don't want to upgrade your wiring.
What model converter do you currently have? If you could give me the model or part number I can make sure you're getting the correct replacement converter compatibility wise.

I replace the original in a 2016 Airstream 30" with this unit it went in very easy and use the same wiring just had to remote mount the fuse block but still had space and works great
