Cub Cadet Electric Fix

“I tried several pullers, breaking two of them. I finally gave up and decided to solve the problem by equipping the tractor with an external alternator from an old Chevy Tracker SUV,” says Heron.
“I replaced the pulley on the alternator with a chain sprocket so I can chain-drive it off another sprocket that I attached to the transmission driveshaft. The only reason I used a chain drive was because that’s what I had on hand.
“Any alternator with a regulator will work. It was relatively easy to find information on the internet to adapt the wiring. It worked out just fine, solving the problem.”
