I am still researching all that would need to be done to change my gas MF35 from a generator to an alternator. I read that to change over I would need to cut the mounting brackets off the MF35 and weld new brackets to the tractor. This site sells the alternator and a mounting bracket, which is various pieces of steel. Is this best and easiest way to mount the alternator? Also, which alternator should I go with? 1 wire, 2 wire, or 3 wire? This is fairly confusing to a 72 year old. I am still concerned about the wiring of the alternator. I really need to get this fixed soon. I miss running the tractor.
