Default Dim Headlights on 40:

I have posted on this problem before but I am back at trying to figure this problem out!With both headlights out and car not running I am getting about 5.50 at the pig tail.If I install one headlight and it burning I check the other pig tail and it is about 4.5.Is this normal?I have installed new headlight switch,dimmer switch,good battery,new regulator,generator has been checked,battery cables new and big.When driving car at night headlights are weak and when I put on brakes the dash lights go dim and headlights get even weaker.Any suggestions on this problem?I refrain from driving at night because lights are crappy!
