Tractor Supply has 1" keyed weld on hub and pulley components that I picked up to try on one of mine. You'll have to turn down the thickness of the collar itself after welding it to the pulley. The stock pulley off of a Suzuki engine had the needed ID to fit the OD of the collar so I just needed weld it on ............. and turn it down. As far as the mount for the generator, I haven't quite gotten around to that.

that thing looks pretty cool like it a lot...

Thanks for the help Boris. I was wondering how these generators regulate itself when the battery is fully charged?

Mounted up the winch

Diamond plate rockers

Headlights installed

Top, windshield, and strobe light for Ga street legal

Brake lights, trailer hitch, and new tailgate straps

Lots more work to go.

Go ahead, do what you really want to do ......... Put it in some mud, or a creek or something ...

The stock golf-cart generator I understand is good enough for a golf cart, but as far as putting it on using lights and a winch and a radio ..... and then trusting it to do what you need it to do without potential problems, I'm honestly not sure. I believe some type of an external voltage regulator will still be needed though.
Somebody else will have to answer that one .....

If you're feeling adventurous ....... I do believe, a small late-model alternator from a GM product has a built-in voltage regulator ....... and some are about as big as an oil-can.

Any auto-electric rebuilding service could probably clarify how the guts work and if thats something that could work for you.
