Does anybody make repro wiring for tractors?

All this recent talk about wiring tractors has gotten me thinking about re-wiring my old SC.

I know there's not a lot to these things... but does anybody make or sell a reproduction wiring harness for the SC or DC tractors?

I know people sell the old type of spark plug wires- so it's not too far fetched.

If I ever got a hold of a tractor that actually still had lights and everything on it- I'd take one down and measure all the lengths and wire sizes.

The wiring schematic is just that- a schematic. Just wondering if anybody (Randy?) had done this work recently...

(wondering how to spell the plural of wiring harness)

Sorry I never got you the photos of the 12-20
Industrial in kansas but the light was bad where it sits and I never got back to it last May; I'll
try again at Christmas and go out there around noontime when the sun is in the south and shining
directly at it.

None of the 6 volt on my SC including the generator worked when I got it so I converted to 12 volt using the instructions available on ytmag and the delco alternator. I found some round black lights at Advance Auto that look nearly original and mounted to the light bar with no modifications. I installed a rear work light also and a flasher on the left fender as we have some traffic around our house. I did the whole project with new stuff for under $125.00 and I shine bright with no dimming or flickering. Case did not fuse these old tractors but I installed fuses for the ignition and lights to be on the safe side. A dead short to the battery under that gas tank might get pretty exciting!

Mike Brillman's makes the harness for around $90 and it includes the lights.

Hi Randy,

Thanks for the link. I just looked and the only CASE wiring harnesses he lists are for the VC and the VAC... did you adapt one of these?

Mike, I talked to him over the phone several months back and he said he makes a harness for the SC. I haven't bought one but it sounded good.

Mike, I doubt you will find a repo SC harness but old style wire & connectors are still available.
BTW the plural of harness is harnesses just as the plural for hoss is hosses. That's you're english & speling lessn fur taday. Joe

Anything wrong with Brillmans black with orange stripe wire and cutting your own? It's great looking old style wire and you can get a chunk of asphalt loom to run 'em thru. He's a great guy, he may even make 'em up for you. How many Christmas lights for the parade are you hooking up?

Hey Baggsy,

Nope- I don't mind making my own at all. But since I (potentially) need to do the same thing three times... I thought a pattern might be handy.

Christmas lights? Just two fronts and one rear.

I've got a good set of 6V Guides, and my burnt up (literally!) set of Guides that I'm retrofitting with some halogens.

I still haven't ever gotten a Guide 2-way backup.

I had the blacksmith at the last tractor show take the twist out of one of my SC light bars. I'm almost ready to swap out the light bar, gas tank and steering column on my tractor.

Mike- I'd be really interested in a pattern for wiring harness as well. I'm just starting on a 1941 DC that has virtually nothing to work from.

I'm also very curious about your halogen retro fit for the 6v guides as I had been thinkinng about the same thing. I have one thats complete and one thats missing both the lens and bulb. Anybody got an extra lens?

That Agri Services out of New York did a harness for my 411B just from the parts book and a few measurements. Came out quite well too. He is in most of the mags. Try him. Good luck, P.S. am working on a VAC now, when it is done I will be looking for an SC. I hear they are habit forming.
