Yesterday's Tractors sells the kits complete. (Duh...)Check the link below. There are other places to buy kits, but why not support the board if you're going to buy one anyway?
I don't understand why everybody dislikes the 6 volt system so bad. I've never had enough trouble with mine to warrant the expense of changing.

Dave,

I also am thinking of converting to 12v. Have you found anywhere that has conversion kits? Not sure what size alternator will be needed. I had a friend convert a massey-ferg. and had to fabricate an alt. bracket himself.

if your n starts ok and the charging system is working good I wouldnt bother converting..the only time I think I would convert to 12 volt is if my generator crapped out..
