I've seen on facebook a couple of different h's and m's with flattop fenders. Does anyone know what flattops would work best for an h and also how to wire the lights up and swap them to 6 volt?

Choice of fenders is a personal choice. Most from larger Farmalls will attach to a flat top axle. It might require some Fabrication or
adaptation. The lights are another topic. The best is to use an entirely different switch because the original will not handle much extra
load. A second switch will also allow selection of light source as needed. I would suggest using LED based bulbs in the fenders (and original
lights) They are much brighter and draw far less amps. If using LEDs the wires can be 14 gauge for all wires. If incandescent, 12 gauge is
needed at least to the point that the wires go to each side. Place the wires under the edge of the foot plate and use clips or wire ties to
keep them out of harms way. A 20 amp breaker or fuse should be between the amp gauge and the switch. Jim

I have 4020 JD fenders on my M. I fabricated mounts from angle and plate.
