I have several older vehicles (cars/tractors) with positive ground systems and would like to convert to negative ground to save confusion when jumping, etc. It seems to me that on a tractor this could be done by just re-polarizing the generator and swaping the coil leads since the starter doesn't care about polarity. What about the regulator? I realize a car would be more complicated due to the accessories such as fan motor and radio but a tractor would seem pretty simple. What am I missing?
