ATTENTION: all you 6V - 12V converters

You may appreciate me for this later so write it down. If you end of converting using an alternator that is "not internally regulated," then you will need a voltage regulator. I've just done this and this one is super: Contact YT and see if they can cross reference AutoZone part number 129965 and also reference VR706. This is an "electronic two wire voltage regulator" that was used on pre-1970 chrysler products. It is small, easy to bolt to the chassis, and has one terminal marked "field" for the line from the "field" to the voltage regulator and one marked "ign" for connecting to switched positive battery voltage (run it to the "dead" side of the switch, so that it is live when the switch is on). Note: this is only for neg ground alternators, and therefore your tractor has to be converted to neg ground. If YT can't help, go to AutoZone - it isn't expensive. enjoy - RKS
