Good morning to all. I rebuilt my generator some years back and it was putting out approx. 8.7 Volts. Now it's nothing. Anyone have a good rebuilt one for sale... else a good source for rebuild parts? Thanks to all!

just a head's up...
there is very little to go wrong with a generator other than worn out bearings and brushes. which is to be expected. similar to anticipating the replacement of tires and brake shoes. it was a regular maintenance issue BITD.
if time and money are a concern (and who am i to say that it is, right?) might want to take a look at that before investing in an expensive rebuild or purchase.

Sure is but maybe the adjustable 3rd brush has moved. Could check that first before sending it away for repair.

Glad to help if you'd like. You can ship it to me for repair or restoration. I can also install an internal Electronic Voltage Regulator (EVR). This converts it to a automatically regulated 2 brush generator. No more over or under charging. I run one in my '35 Fordor.
