Fit originally? If you mean one that currently HAS an alternator vs a generator,yes. What old says is true,you have to wind them up to get them to charge,generally about 1/2 throttle on a tractor,but once they start to charge,you can idle them back down and they'll work all day. The regulator went out on my 1550 Oliver. It had a small one that mounted right on the back of the alternator. A self exiter Delco was cheaper than just the regulator,so I changed that one. I didn't have to change any wiring.All the wires to the regulator were right there,just little short ones to that regulator anyway,so I took them off with the regulator. Only problem I had was that if it sat too long it would draw the battery down. I just cut the big wire that ran to it up under the dash,put a toggle switch in it right next to the key start ignition,and now when I shut it off,I just flip the swicth off. Flip it back on when I start it.
