[iain]

I dont know if it will help, but when we slung the new kohler onto the lt40hd, it has its own internal charger that dont do much (about 4amp i think),

 so a newish) 110amp from a Citroen (looked all shiny and sparkly)was bolted to the pulley side and connected to the battery (biggest i could fit in the box) using the wm big cable everything has worked for yonks now

That's right see.. 

2 alternators hooked up with their own regulators in parallel, and has worked for Yonks.

That pretty much says it iain... where have you been?..  .....

Jumping in kinda late here;  some of the old Gleaner combines (M, L, maybe the earlier of the II series) used 2 alternators;  my recollection is they were the Delco with internal regulators; 10 si;  don't know how they were wired, but it was a 12 V negative ground system.........

         Greetings, richard here, I,ve been here a while just haven't posted.
     Just started on my mill, how do I put up a pic? I have Windows XP.
     My log name is Nicole, richard was taken.

     Your mill is looking nice, that brace across the bottom I guess will be coming off once your track is together?
     Hope this was an OK place to ask about posting.

Hello Nicole/Richard,

Hey all !!!
  Havent added anything to this thread for awhile so thought i'd stop in and start updating again. Mill is running good. Hitching on the trailer tomorrow and heading south to pickup several walnut trees. Also have 6 or 7 oaks waiting to be picked up and a couple nice size ash. I have one of them steel carport things to park the head of the mill in but havent got it moved into place yet need to put down some rock first.
When its set i'll post some pictures.
