Everyday another issue.The short taper armature shaft and the pulley are both worn out and really was wobbling. Is it worth it to fix up the generator as I see a lot of guys use the alternator.The ones Brattons sells are not cheap and they are made by Nu Rex.might be okay but some of the NuRex stuff I have seen comes from India.I like the original look of a generator like on my '37 Ford it is an alternator inside a generator case. Mayby I should just get a rebuilt generator. that short taper doesn't seem to be one of Fords better ideas.
