: : : I am trying to convert my 8n to 12 volts. I have found a 12 volt alt. from a Gm. The mounting bracket from an old buick v-8 Fit with a few modafications. My problem is the pulley on the GM. alt. is smaller in width than the pulley on the stock generator. Will this cause a proble with the belt ? Do I need to change the pulley or do I use a different belt? Any help here would be wonderfull. Thank you in advance Jim aka Wilseya. : : : You can e mail me at lybarger@thegrid.net : : : Thanks again and Wilseya : : 12 volt is an easy way out of making a wore out tractor start. An alternator makes a tractor look crappy. 12 volt takes out starter drives and ring gears. So, if you want to spend a lot of money in the long run, go right ahead and screw it up with 12 volt.
