I can take some photos of mine (1929 75) but it is RH drive, battery on the left hand side.

My 1929 75 has a honeycomb radiator, there is an in-depth u tube clip of a guy in Australia making them.

I would connect it up to your battery and then add an increasing amount of load, multiple headlamp bulbs ? In parallel until it energises and switches on and off rapidly. For a quick and dirty test you could momentarily short out the output and see if it operates. I had some dodgy wiring that fed an aftermarket wiper motor, which shorted out one day when I was testing the lights during the cars recommissioning. They make a right racket when working. I think the cut out current is quoted in the owners manual.

From my records belt part number was 6621ES

I used a gates belt on mine. Not sure if the part number is clear enough?

I purchased one from James Peterson in the states (his email address should be on the forum)

A sensible modification, it will regulate to the battery’s / cars needs (3rd brush is a compromise) and there will be less chance of the generator charging flat out and throwing its solder if it’s disconnected from the battery for any reason (broken wire etc.). I fitted an electronic regulator inside the brush cover band on my 75 , looks original from the outside.

I looked at these for my 1929 75, slightly shorter than yours ? But haven’t purchased yet. www.kaiserwillys.com/products/fram-style-oil-filter-canister-assembly-kit-fits-46-64-truck-station-wagon-jeepster/.

Bill, My 1929 75 built for export has a UX-2, as Jon pointed out it suffered the same fate as the DB-20 and dissolved. I have new aluminium castings from Australia. Not got round to assembling it yet. John

Hi John, Photos from my RHD 75

Hi Bill, yes it’s a 75 coupe, I can take some more photos if needed. ta John

Or like this ?

John, I am using Penrite transoil 250 in my 75 mixed with a small amount of STP oil treatment. John

Hi Joe, Have you seen this guy ? Obviously an advert for his company but some useful behind the scenes info. John

Thanks Sasha39, yes that is the one I am looking at on ebay. I have asked the seller for a few more dimensions but it looks like it’s a 65 one. Will keep looking.
