John Deere model B tractor

boaz@eagltechnology.com · Jun 16, 2019

Hi, I can sure use some help
I m trying to convert 1944 model B from hand crank to electric start. I changed the flywheel I changed the crank cover but I can t find any starter that will fit this mount. See attached photos
Any ideas?
Thank you

The starter you need is a Delco 1107445 6 volt

I think you need a flywheel and starter from an early styled tractor. You have an early styled tractor with a late styled flywheel.

JDBRIDER-I believe you have hit the nail on the head.

Richard Brown at New Paris Tractor Parts will have parts.

I think a starter from a late H would fit.

Randy G · Jun 17, 2019

A starter for an H is #1109600 and the drive spins from the outside in while a 1107445 drive spins from the inside out on the armature shaft and has much larger windings. Not enough cranking power for an H starter to turn a B over to start. IMO

Here are pix of 1942 B that is unmolested and original electric start. Yours would be the same.

Do not know why pix are blurry.

boaz If you don't care about it being original you can use a gear reduction starter. I think this is the right one. Deleted my bookmarks for the starters. 10 tooth and 40 mm gear. Use them on our pulling tractors. Lynn
