I have a JD 720 diesel with an electric start that came without any wiring or starter or switches. I just bought a 40mt 24 volt starter which fits perfectly in the starter bracket that I want to use to start it. Also I bought two 12 volt 800 CA batteries which fit in the battery box, and I bought a 24 volt low turn alternator to charge the batteries.
What I need is help with how to wire it all up from scratch. If someone could send me a basic wiring diagram on how I would connect the ignition switch and battery to the starter, and how I would wire up the alternator back to the batteries, and where the amp meter connects in, and what size wire I would need, I would greatly appreciate it.
I know this is not original and I am not looking to restore it to original. I just want something that is reliable and will start the diesel and charge the batteries. I don't have lights or the fuel gage, so that is not an issue.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
