Brad, it is no problem to change your tractor to negative ground. Besides the obvious battery cable switch you reverse the wires on your ammeter, reverse the wires on the coil, and polarize your generator. I did this on my 60 puller and it works fine and has for years. Hope this helps. Mike

They make one for the negative ground too, it would be easier to find that kit, than change your system to negative ground.
