WTB : Belt Driven Alternator
Anyone have a belt driven alternator that they aren't using? I want to buy a new or good used Texas T Parts external belt driven alternator, either 6 or 12 volt. Must be complete kit from crank pulley, belt, alternator, and mounting brackets.

Steve, i don't know if the one I saw on EBAY was produced by the CA. guy, but i didn't like the bracket design. i like Texas T Parts head mounted bracket, better, but Birdhaven says they don't have all the components necessary to make kits.

I believe it was that one - it's a toy tractor (quite small) alternator - I installed one on a T buddy's '15 Runabout - turned out quite good.

Steve, if you've got the contact info for the maker, pass it along. I may have no choice. I just don't understand Birdhaven. Running out of stock was never seemed to be a problem for Ben Hardeman. Its called keeping track of inventory and reordering before its too late and you run out.

Re: WTB : Belt Driven Alternator
Received THREE emails this morning through the MTFCA. All of them had virtually the same message : "Buddy, are you still wanting to buy a belt driven Alternator. I have one in good condition". NO name or contact information given with any email. CAN YOU SMELL A SCAM like I do ?
