I think the easiest most straightforward is to have your existing one rebuilt (and this is assuming that the generator is deficient and that your root cause isn't elsewhere).

If you are looking for a replacement, then check this thread out: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...f1-226h-2.html

The long and short of it is it seems you are looking for a Wilson 92-02-5002 or equivalent.

Thanks for the advice, you are always very helpful. I live in Central Ma and there just isn't anyone around here that rebuilds them anymore. Seems like a lost trade

I have one off my 48 with flat 6. I changed mine to an alternator. I don't know your location, it might be heavy to ship?

It doesn't matter, if it is a working generator and you are willing to sell let me know

You can probably get it in a flate rate postal service box. Otherwise shipping will be about $50 is my guess.

Yeah, but you’d have to pack it so the ears don’t get broken off.

No youre right but luckily there’s Steve Blancard, I had several of mine rebuilt by Steve splitdorf@***.net he’s in VA. It isn’t that much to ship back and forth. You won’t find anyone better at what he does. He’s done several for me and everyone I’ve heard mention him sings his praises. Alternatively he’s going to Hersey this year so you could do a pic or drop to save on shipping at least one way if you or someone is going?
