bandit, the thing in the box is a light switch and a reseitor that controls the generator charging. if the lights are off, the generator charges about 2 amps. When you pull the light switch out the lights come on at half way, if you pull the switch all the way out the resistor makes the generaotr charge at 10 amps. You do not need everything, but you need a complete circuit to make the system charge. You say you have a regulator, do you know the regulator is on the side of the generator , or are you talking about the resistor by the light switch. Tyler has the best idea. If you do not need a stock system, go to Auto Zone or Napa and get a Delco alternator with the resistor inside and install it. You could also change to a 12 volt negative ground system at the same time, not very expensive in the long run if you need a new battery soon. Ther are wiring diagrams at this site that show delco alternators on Ford 8N, etc.
