In Reply to: My Observation on 6 to 12 Volt Conversions - Rather Long.. posted by farmallhal on December 17, 2010 at 09:47:12:

farmallhal...I tend to agree with your thoughts and comments...however....

I realize that this is the RED board and my comments are applicable to Ford, but are offed as food for thought and discussion.

My '63 FORD 4000...a gasser...was originally a 6 volt tractor. I bought it 2nd or 3rd hand many years ago and it was a 12 volt tractor. At the time of purchase, I did not know it had been a 6 volt unit.

I was talking with an acquaintance of mine one day about the tractor and he said that he had owned the tractor at one time and had converted it by using a 12volt GENERATOR and 12volt STARTER off the same model DIESEL tractor. In the ensuing years (probably 23-25 years) I've had to replace starter and...I think, also...the generator. No problem....look up 63 Ford 4000 DIESEL for those part numbers.

QUESTION: Could something like this work for the IH/Farmalls as well??

I've learned a lot on this board...have a 46 Farmall A that will get "restored" someday now that I'm retired!!

Rick

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
