I own a 1981 B7100 that I mainly use to move snow. I have a 3 point hitch mounted snow blower which requires me to back up all the time to move my snow.
Since it's dark a lot of the time here in winter I added 2 18w LED offroad lights and 1 amber strobe light (some of time I'm in a road) on a pole and find my battery going dead on me. My tractor didn't have much in the way of lights and these help, but I now need a stronger alternator.
Has anyone added an aftermarket alternator to their tractor? I have found a 35amp mini-alternator that should cover the lights and then some. I am wanting to a clean job of it and try to keep it under the hood. So I'm asking if anyone has done this and can provide pointers...
Future plans include a full set of gauges/tach and a fuel gauge.
Thanks in Advance!
