I found McMark's thread on nice upgrade from a few years back.
It was not a step by step, I don't remember seeing much how-to or the final results on that thread. But my Alt died this weekend, so I thought I would research making an upgrade. Is there a nice step by step out there somewhere? Clark |

thanks for the info- I now see all the threads relating to this- I pulled mine as I was cleaning and refreshing the motor and tin- my alternator is a 50 amp, not 55 so its an earlier one someone must have put on it, so my new tin piece I got from Bruce Stone does not fit. my charging was fine, I don't run fancy stuff but might go with the HID or LED head lights, not sure which one - I may just put this one back in for now and use the old ring with the plastic ring - just the boot I bought is too small fro the shroud opening as I stated in the other thread too. so I am not sure which way to go there. its crazy how many of these are now discontinued.
