Default Re: Rebuild generator or move to alternator?

Replaced my cut-out. It was bad, but that didnt fix the generator. So took the generator apart last week. It hadn't worked since I bought the car. Found the wire to the field coils was bare and rubbing on the commutator. Also replaced the bearing which was shot. And found the meter was wired backwards. Its rarely just one problem on my car. But glad I did the repairs. I learned tons.
