I converted my father-n-laws 9N to a GM alternator a couple years back. I made my own brackets out of flat iron, it was a simple conversion but i do remember having to put an offset in the top bracket. The factory generator bracket on the bottom was too close to the engine block so I had to make a bracket to space the bottom out and up some for clearance. KEEP THE ALTERNATOR AS CLOSE TO THE ENGINE BLOCK AND AS HIGH AS POSSIBLE as the front axle can pivot up and hit the alternator on rough terraign. If you place the alternator as high as possible -close to the hood- the front axle will not hit. GOOD LUCK!!
